PietroBR,
 
Absolutely, I will take pictures along the way with each install step and put it up here as well as temp and clock changes. 
 
Are there any tests anyone would like me to run on the air cooled stock Titan X Pascal before my new cooler arrives or perhaps some stats while running tests?
 
I was planning to run Furmark, Valley, 3dmark and Heaven and track temp and clock(min/Max/Average).

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5800x3D - Fclk@1800mhz
Cooling: EKWB 360 AIO
Mother Board: X570 Asus Crosshair VIII Formula
GPU: 1x 4090 MSI SUPRIM Liquid X
RAM: 2x 16GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo @3600mhz CL14 (B-Die) 
SSDs(NVME): 1X WD sn850x 4TB,
SSDs(SATA): 1X Samsung 870 EVO 2TB, 1x Samsung 850 Pro 512GB, 1x Samsung 840 Pro 256GB
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster ZXR
Case: Phantek P600S
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 1000W T2
Monitor(Main): Alienware AW3423DW (175hz QD-Oled)
Monitor(2ndary): Asus VG259QR (165hz IPS)
OS: Windows 10 pro 64bit

Mathieas,
I don't know if you have it, but the Superposition Benchmark by Unigine would be a nice run as well.

Case: Asus Z370-G Box / MB: Asus Z370-G / CPU: Intel I7 8700K / Mem.: 16GB (2x8) 3000Mhz Corsair Dominator Platinum DDR4 / GPU: GTX 1080TI FTW3 / A.I.O. W.C: EVGA CLC280 / PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA G3 750W

Hey all,
 
I am here to report back on my Titan X Pascal install of the EVGA 1080 TI SC Hybrid cooler.
 
TLDR: Temps dropped over 40C, install was not bad (thanks to this awesome community and youtube) but was not easy either.
 
About the install: The included screws on the VRM cooler plate are absolutely the wrong screws! They will allow the VRM cooler to sag and most likely cause all the fan issues as Scarlet and others mentioned. Now one option for solving this is using nylon washer as Scarlet recommend. This however warps the back plate. The next option is to dremel the cooler nubs as recommend by Zealotkiller. I went a different rout, i used my own tiny screws(M2X4) that had no spacer built in and that worked perfect. The only down side is the backplate is now missing 3 screws(because my M2X4 are not standoffs) which could put a bit less contact on the one component cooled by the backplate. I did however add a bit more of the fiber thermal pad to that piece to give it some extra height and that seemed to work well, the component is now fulled covered by thermal pad material and has pressure to press it into the backplate. Lastly, there have been rumors of using the existing screws that the stock cooler used, this will not work. The screws are almost all different sizes. I had no issues with screws stripping or breaking I was very careful though and watched any strain that could be placed on the screws from pieces not fitting together perfect. I also used a 4mm socket as recommend and had a nice small #00 screw driver for the tiny screws.
 
I still need to run my myriad of benchmarks but for now I have some prelim data.
 
Superpositon running 1080p extreme:
 
Air cooled: 84C max temp, 5614
Water cooled Hybrid: 42C max temp, 59xx. 
 
So temps dropped over 40C and performance went up about 5.5%.
 
I will run a lot more tests as well as look at the std deviation of the frequency over each bench run and report back once finished.
 
Regards,
 
Jonathan

Nice work you did there Jonathan.
And glad it worked out, despite the adaptations for the VRM cooling plate.

Also, damn nice drop on temps.

I thought it would work.

Hey all, 
 
Thank you everyone who contributed to this thread and provided and advice and kind words. I really appreciate it! It is because of this community that I come to the EVGA forums time and time again.
 
As promised I have some results for my Stock Air cooled vs Stock Hybrid Titan X Pascal. If there is anything else anyone would like to know or see please let me know and I will be happy to oblige is i am able. Please forgive the table format I haven't had time to make pretty graphs. It is interesting to see how much more consistant the freq is in Valley vs Superposition for the Hybrid. I bet Valley was simply thermal locked while Superpos is hitting other limits. I should look closer to that. Furmark interestingly enough gained almost nothing as it was not terribly thermal locked. This was strange to me, but it prob just has a really high power usage. I am quite ignorant on how a chip could hit power target in some applications and not others even when temps are low... perhaps it has to do with aspects of the chip that are being used?
 
 
 
Enjoy and thanks again!
