Hi, I am trying to add water cooling to my EVGA RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming GPU (12G-P5-3967-KR). I am having a horrible time finding anything helpful other than tons of water blocks, but no actual AIO systems/kits. The unit is mounted in a Corsair iCue 5000X case, so I figured the radiator part would mount to the front, and any CPU AIO that I add would mount to the top. I've got tons of space in the case, so that's not an issue at all. Any help that anyone could provide on compatible water cooling units would be wonderful. If you need any clarifying info, I can provide that as well.

    Welcome to the EVGA Forums
     
    The FTW3 cards are bigger than standard cards ... any "AIO kit" or water block would need to be made to fit this special PCB size card
     
     
    EVGA did have a AIO cooler that fit these FTW3  cards; however, like most of the EVGA AIO coolers of past GPU series - they seem to have sold out everywhere & if you could find one for sale, it would probably be at a premium

    For some previous Series of GPU - things like the NZXT Kraken G12 (check product to see what Mfg says it will work with) have been used on the standard sized PCB cards before - though they do not cover or cool everything & heat sinks are also need to be applied

    Like Cool GTX said the Hybrid kits for your 12G-P5-3967-KR are Out of Stock now for a while.
    The only solution between an EVGA Hybrid kit and a full on Waterblock (which is for custom liquid cooling systems) would be this Alphacool Eiswolf 2 .
    There is nothing else on the market that is liquid based that i know of, there would only be an alternative air cooling solution the Raijintek MORPHEUS 8069 , which would be good if your fans stop working and you can't or don't want to source new ones, or if you simply want to try this more open solution without shroud, or in case the warranty doesn't guarantee you a card anymore or you simply wanna keep the one you have (because it's good clocker or whatever).

    Thank you both for your help! I had seen both of those items, but I was unsure if they would be what I might need. I looked a bit more at the Eiswolf option, along with integrating it with the Eisbaer for my CPU. I think those should work well together once I figure out if there's a particular arrangement of combining them that will work best (CPU to GPU to both rads back to CPU OR Top rad to CPU to front rad to GPU to top rad, etc.). If you happen to know which configuration is best please let me know.

    You don't need to integrate them with eachother, they both function as standalone AIO units, they both have Pumps and ofcourse their own radiators.
    But i did see they say they are Expandable because of the quick release tubing, i'm not sure in what combination or how would you be able to have it set up best, perhaps shoot an email to them describing your rig and the case and they can say.
    Let us know how it went :)

    Thanks! It might be a bit before I make the purchases of the GPU and CPU coolers (they're definitely not cheap). I appreciate all the help! Probably going to order through ModMyMods if I do the Alphacool options, since Alphacool.com and aquatuning.us charge so much for shipping.

     feel free to post again when you got the stuff in the future, eager to see the products and how it went for you.
