Is it possible to change the angle of the radiator hoses on the block for the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti SC2 HYBRID see attached very crude drawing.
Basically the point straight up or (12:00).  I need them to point to about 4:00 for the build i'm trying to accomplish.
I've seen in a tear down of that card that there are many screws on the block and was hoping to adjust the angle of the pipes by re-aligning those.
 
I realize i would 1. Void warranty and 2- Have to cut some plastic from the bottom of the shroud. but that's ok.

    I doubt you can do a 45 degree mount for the hoses. I'm sure the 4 mounts for the block are at the corners. So you could maybe turn it to the side but then the lines connections prob would hit the fan. Another turn and it would point straight down.
     
    If the mount is separate plate from the pump then maybe you can turn it. I'd look for mounting videos of the hybrid block to see how its mounted.

    go to the 5:30 mark and you can see when he pulls the hybrid cooler off, after he turns it over, look like there is a bunch of screws holding the cold plate to the black square mounting bracket.
     
    If you remove the screws holding the black square plate to the cooler side, looks like you could rotate it and rescrew it in the direction you want.

    It appears to just be a piece of flat metal with standoffs screwed to the cold plate side. Not sure if this is actually sealing anything, but just from looking at it from this video looks possible.
     
    If you are going to attempt this, i would try removing the outter screws going thru the black plate rotating the bracket like desired first. Reinstall without shroud (and before cutting up shroud) to see if it works first. That way if it did'nt work, you could put it back to stock config and not void your warranty while testing to see if it even works.

    Just rotate that plate without opening the block :) wouldn't want to loose the fluid.

    Instead of voiding your warranty why don't you just get a Kraken G12 and a regular 1080Ti?  Unless you already have a 1080Ti hybrid.  You can easily use the G12 and your choice of AIO water cooling to get whatever you desire.  Your card should still have warranty as long as you put it back to stock prior to shipping it back for any RMA requirements, as long as you don't damage it during the process.
