Hey everyone. So I know the 1080ti Hybrid SC2 uses a 3pin connector (but only uses 2 wires), please correct me if I'm wrong. 
 
Here is my plan. I'd like to use a splitter to get two fans off that control to do a push pull config. However, I don't know what the amp/watt max is for this fan. Anyone know?
 
I'd suspect it's the typical 1A, 12W, like most AIO coolers, but with it being a gpu, I've no idea.
 
Would it be safe to do what I'm thinking of doing, and if so, what fans would you recommend?

    I believe it's 1A as well. Contact tech support to confirm. https://www.evga.com/about/contactus/

    Thank you. I've seen some advice saying it's better to run the fans off a mobo header, as the gpu will just run it at a constant 70%.. is this true?

    The pump itself uses 7.5W, so figure that into any calculations you need to make.
     
    The only info I was able to find was what EKWB recommends on their GPU fan adapter cables: "Power limitation of the fan connector found on modern graphics cards is limited to 2 amperes!"
