When did you place your order if you don't mind me asking? I purchased a vanilla EVGA titan X from Amazon over 3 weeks ago and I still haven't heard anything.

EDIT:
Never mind. Saw the previous post. Thanks guys!

i placed my order for the Titan X non SC version on March 20th and got it in on the 27th.  From Amazon.

Yeah that's the worst part.. waiting with NO updates or info as to when.
 
Every time I order something and it ships via FedEx, he comes by our block around 1-2pm. Today.. since my card was on his truck, of course, he didn't show up until 7pm. :|
 
A couple observations of mine so far..
 
- Nicely packed with bubble foam on both sides
- Back of the card has what looks like a "blotch of fogginess" spots towards the back
- With a room temp around 79F, the card idles at 32c @30% fan speed
- GPU-Z reports an ASIC quality of 75.7 - I don't really think this number matters. I've had cards from 51% all the way to 83% and they all overclocked differently.
 
EDIT:
- Under load the card will hit 84c in Valley with the fan profile set to auto
- Under load with the fan profile set to mimic 30c/30rpm, 50c/50rpm, etc., it reaches 71c
- I can get a max boost overclock of 1402MHz so far with the profile shown above. At stock fan profile, it will throttle down to 1350-1380MHz
- I'm going to re-paste it tonight with MX4 and see how that fares

Last four digits on my card are 6845.

I'm happy to announce I successfully installed a 980 AIO on a Titan X. I have a 3rd Titan X coming in the next day or two and 3 AIO units in total. I will post pics and benchmarks then.

I did a simple benchmark test with Heaven 1.0. I have both cards overclocked to about 1400mhz with max power target, temp target, overvolt, ect.

My normal Titan X I ran the GPU fan at a static 100% which is around 4,800RPM (LOUD)
My AIO Titan X I ran the GPU fan at a static 20% which is around 1,000RPM (quiet)
I'm using a Corsair SP120 quiet edition running at a static 700RPM for the AIO radiator (quiet)

My AIO Titan X runs 20C+ cooler and obviously 10x quieter than the other Titan X running. I'm sure the difference would be 30C+ if both fans were running the same speed. More to come in a few days.
 
 

Can you write up how you did it?

Idle with custom fan profile is 38C, Load is 74C.

 
I bet these temp variances between people's cards have to do with the TIM. If you're open to repasting it, I bet you'll see similar temps like the "good" cards are seeing. I know I plan to do that initially (If I'm in the same boat as you) since I'll be waiting a couple months while I acquire the rest of my WC parts.
 

 
I replaced the TIM with AS5 and still hot. =/

There's almost no need to. The instruction booklet on how to do this on the 980 is exactly the same for the Titan X. They have the same exact shroud & bracket.

I swear I saw Jacob say they had different bezel or something.

I went to replace my TIM earlier. Well.. it looks like someone decided to be very lazy with my card. :| I'm missing 7 thermal pads for the memory. Not cool.
 

Anyone know where I can order some thermal pads that are decent quality?

what? was that a evga version or directly from nvidia? that is royally messed up.

performance pcs if you're in the u.s. fujipoly thermal pads are the best but are expensive.

I would take 2 vga titan X of EVGA but are currently unavailable in europe.
So what if I take an other brand? Zotac / gigabyte / asus / msi?

You will have 150MHz less clock, 15% slower TITAN X if you thought to buy EVGA TITAN X Superclocked version.
And I'm not sure is it possible to flash ASUS TITAN X with EVGA Superclocked BIOS. EVGA TITAN X is possible to flash with Superclocked BIOS if card can resist same clock. And you will not have backplate, only EVGA TITAN X and TITAN X Superclocked will have available backplate for 19-20$.
 

 
You can flash the Asus card, you just need to disable the bios protection with the appropriate nvflash command.

That mean with standard procedure you can flash card from one manufacturer with BIOS from completely other brand...
I didn't know that... But again TPU get sample capable to OC only 110MHz...
That card will crash with SC BIOS and probably at the end stable clock would be 90-100MHz... 
Never mind this whole year is ASUS Anniversary, they have fastest GTX980, maybe they launch and fastest GM200 6GB...
They should present and special X99 motherboard for Anniversary.
I will read what customers say for their 980 Golden if no crashes maybe I will think about GM200 from ASUS. 
I don't mean on standard fault cards, I mean if ASUS didn't sold card capable to work on lower speed but not on advertised. 
 
 

Jacob can we please have a Titan X branded shroud for the AIO? Pretty please? I'll buy you lots of candy and cookies!

Ive got weired green shattering on my screen while having evga titxan x sc on sli,only when i play video games :/

If thermal pads are missing, someone has opened your card prior to your receiving it. The photo you posted show telltale signs on the baseplate of the presence of all of the pads - that oily residue.

I saw that too.  I wonder if that was a demo card or test sample??
