Taken the plunge couldn't decide between the Ti and a Titan X but for 1440p I think it'll be enough, can always add another at a later date.

Been stung there, mate. The Hydro Copper was £650 on Friday.

My EVGA bridge arrived, and it does light up with my reference EVGA SC cards.
It's a darn shame NVIDIA hasn't seen fit to sell their sexy bridge outside of North America. Only things missing now is that NV bridge, and 3rd 980Ti

don't worry it will get update to correct amount when order gone to warehouse in the queue.

Thanks, showing correct amount of VAT now.

Have people created custom BIOS for these yet? I'm wanting to see some crazy clocks from a hybrid user!

 

[RanxZy]

Wow hope my setup doesn't require that kind of fan RPM. Two ACX SC on a Maximus Hero VII in a H440 case. Hopefully if I take the front panel off I can get away with a 50-60% fan profile.

"Hi,

at those who have the EVGA GTX 980 TI SC ACX 2.0: Can you tell me please which temperature you reach at 100% fan and 100% GPU load? Is the card then loud?"

"I have two of those. They are pretty loud actually. 100% is obnoxiously loud and you would never want that for extended periods. Over 70% starts to get really noticeable. With 1 card and fans at 70% you are looking at temps in the 69- 72 range at max load. Honestly Id personally go for a different card if I could do it again. Maybe the Windforce or wait for others."

I hope you have a better experience with the ACX 2.0.

Not good... I'll report tomorrow as well. Honestly, silence is an absolute must for me.

 

[jommy999]

Interested to see other people's opinions on the fan that comes with the Hybrid heatsink. Thinking I might replace it with a Corsair SP120 like I did for the H100i

Shiver please let us know about when you overclocked your Hybrid ? i'd love to hear more about it .Thanks in advance

 

[Ayahuasca]

Not good... I'll report tomorrow as well. Honestly, silence is an absolute must for me.

If the 980ti is anything like the TX, which it is, you aren't going to get silence under load on air. Some cards will be less audible than others but all models will be audible unless your room is 16c.

 

[N19h7m4r3]

Definitely not ideal in sli, particularly on a mobo with a one slot gap. I found the wf cooler started to get noticeable once the fan hit 65%. Custom fan profile of a 1-1 setting, highest temp I ever got on the top card was 85c. Bottom one never once above 65c.

Wow hope my setup doesn't require that kind of fan RPM. Two ACX SC on a Maximus Hero VII in a H440 case. Hopefully if I take the front panel off I can get away with a 50-60% fan profile.

1-1 fan profile would be way too crazy for me, especially with temps still going to 75+.

Will find out tomorrow.

Ouch, 85 on the top card is 1 degree hotter than my Reference cooler. I'd say if you had a double spaced gap between the cards the top one's temps would be much lower.

Has it affected the mobo and CPU temps as well?

 

[se_vietboi]

The Super JetStream looks pretty damn nice. Would go well with my white H440 case. The cooler looks extremely similar to the Twin Frozr V.

My GTX 980 ACX SC at 1500mhz was around 75 degrees at a 40% fixed fan profile. I don't put too much weight on the above.

Cards are coming tomorrow will know on Wednesday when I have a chance to put them in.

My 780 had a windforce on it and I never heard it... Maybe, once in a blue moon it started to spin up but it was more rushing air than fan noise.

 

[Ayahuasca]

The 780 is a smaller chip and ran cooler than the 980ti does.

 

[N19h7m4r3]

Cards are coming tomorrow will know on Wednesday when I have a chance to put them in.

I would be very interested in the results. Especially since we have the same chassis and stock fans on it still.
