I purchased a 1080 EVGA hybrid cooler off Ebay to see if it would work well with the 1080 Ti. I was actually impressed and 100% satisfied at the results. This will be my setup until the next series of cards come out.
 
I paid $30 shipped for the used hybrid cooler.
 
 
With Furmark i was hitting around 80c with max fan speed on stock cooler. With the hybrid installed my max temp is 59c after an hour. This is with +200 core and +500 mem.
 
I have the stock Nvidia fan at 20% speed to still cool the VRM and the rest of the components that touch the stock plate. 
 
Thanks goes to Gamers Nexus.

You do not need to disassemble the entire card. Just the top part of the shroud.

 
When all is said and done the only parts missing from the 1080 ti is plastic window and 4 screws that hold the window along with the heatsink.
I also removed the cap EVGA cap to the hybrid cooler. 

nice mod!
 
temps aren't bad either 

nicee thinking of doing this!

Nice!

It looks like the top part of the shroud is what is holding the cooler in place. Is this correct? Does it stay in place without sliding with the vibration of the card?
 
And nice work!

The cooler mounting holes on the 1080ti are exactly the same as the 1080. The cooler is held on by the original 4 screws that held on the OEM heatsink. You don't need to put the shroud on. The shroud is there to help direct air over the entire card. VRM and other components are still being cooled.

Oh well that's good to know! So one could simply buy the 1080ti and the 1080hybrid kit then just wait for the official shroud to be released or something like that. I'm sure kany will follow your footsteps.

For information purposes which hybrid kit did you get ?

That is a totally sassy looking PC very beautifuf and very clean, the way it should be. Mine will be clean shortly with new parts like a New 240gig Sandisk SSD-drive that will power my Win-10 OS, i hope that will make things better for right now. I love that that Awesome Hybrid-build to, good temps.
 
Don't forget to Post us your results, this is awesome heheh.

Nice! What kind of boost clocks are you seeing while gaming?
