I am over the KP Hype, Flow is there, reseated multiple times now, temps are meh, this thing is going up for sale end of july more than likely. Here are the temps under full load.
2 xe480 rads
1 ce420
dual d5
the heat out of this bad boy is something else, in my opinion for the $300 or what ever it was this hydrcopper is terrrrrible.

low temps when there is no load.
 
I really expected a lot more, these temps are more than enough for gaming, 2145/2160 stable, the whole claim of 2200 is a bit of a far reach.

I ended up putting my AiO back on. Testes it with an EK 420 CE in push pull. Brought the temps down to 45 at stock settings and 49 with the OC. Seems pretty unacceptable. I still dont understand how the Hybrid cooler is better with a slim 240 than a 360 or a 420.

Hybrid on same superposition 8k run with fans 80% compared to the 100% with the 420 CE I'm getting a max of 44°C. That's with the 2115 OC that I use for 24/7 operation. Compared to the 49°C my card was hitting with the Hydro copper. I reseated it 8 times so I dont think it's my placement.

I'm wasn't referring to your placement but could be just a bad spec'd block or some pads too thick by accident somehow.  Just throwing any possibilities.  I would probably RMA the block seeing what you have done already.
 
I almost forgot to ask, did you have the GPU bracket installed on the WB?  If so, try without it one last attempt before moving towards a RMA or at least get a hold of support.

Oh, I wasn't actually answering anyone when I said I don't think it's the seating. I was also just throwing out things I've tried Haha. The first time I tried it with the bracket and the last 6 without after i saw others had luck with that. I'll be seeing about another possible RMA or a refund. I'm getting 4-5 ° difference with the hybrid. My 2080 to Xc2 ultra only reached 44°C after 3+ hours of use. I know this card uses more Voltage but man.

So this is what i got my idle temps at now at room temperature. Liquid temp at 19C room temp at 20C. I pulled all stock thermal pads and replaced them all with fuji 17w/km.  1.0mm on the memory and 1.5mm everywhere else. Also the memory modules i put a little drop of thermal paste between the module and the pads.

Nice, looking forward to that too, since I want to do a similar thing with the kingpin myself. I also wonder what kind of thermal pad thickness is on the stock AIO...

@dwexpress Do you have a Backup Normal Custom Water Loop for your KPE?

I have a koolance pump/reservoir combo unit that i use. When i got home it decided it didn't want to work but i can't complain the unit was several years old.  Ordered another one but won't have it until early next week. So right now the chiller is my pump unit and its set at 20C which is my room temperature so it is basically set to what a normal custom loop would be. I wanted to use that before hooking the chiller up so i could get a good comparison but since it took a crap i couldn't.  I will be able to once it gets here though because i have quick couplers so i can switch from chiller to stock custom loop in a matter of just a few minutes.
