Question 1

Will this card work with my straight-from-nvidia Founders Edition 1080?

Accepted Answer

While the EVGA card is the primary one this was designed to be used with, other cards have been used as well. YMMV call EVGA support for a more definative answer, is the best advice.

Question 2

Will this support a NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1080?  PN: 900-1G413-2500-001

Accepted Answer

Yes, that's the founders edition that I installed one on. BE VERY careful if you install this, the tiny little screws in the video card snap VERY easily, they're so small. I only snapped 2, and it hasn't hurt performance at all, nor the install itself; just annoying.

Question 3

does this work with gtx 1080ti FE?

Accepted Answer

It has to be modded to work with the 1080 ti FE, but it is possible. I helped a friend do this mod with his 2 1080 to FE's and it worked great! The metal plate has to be cut to fit the power connector and capacitor differences from the 1080/1070 models. It can be a bit of a pain, but worth it in the end I think.

Question 4

Will this work on the new Titan X Pascal?

Accepted Answer

I originally asked this question and didn't get a response so I contacted EVGA.  This is their reply:  "The Hybrid kit for the GTX 1080/1070 is designed to only accommodate one 8pin pcie power connector and the Titan X Pascal has an 8pin & 6pin pcie power connectors; therefore, it's very likely that it will not fit without making some slight modifications to the shroud; and we cannot guarantee that it's compatible"  So it looks like this will NOT work for the Titan X Pascal.  EVGA should be making one specifically for the Pascal so will just have to wait until it's released.

Question 5

will this fit on a gtx 1080 ti?

Accepted Answer

It does, but it has to be modified slightly. You have to remove a portion of the casing where the power connectors are. The 1080 has only one 8 pin plug while the 1080ti has an 8 and a 6 pin plug. Only other thing is to make sure that the additional memory chips on the 1080 to are covered in thermal paste or the tape that comes with the kit.

Question 6

I have the EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0 version. It's not listed on the compatibility list. Does that mean it doesn't fit? I know EVGA makes the hybrid version for this card which was not available when I got it.

Accepted Answer

Since you have the FTW model - the PCB is different from a reference PCB, so it will not fit without modifications.
I would contact EVGA and inquire about possible upgrades since they do make this hybrid cooler for their 1080 FTW card.

tldr; This will not fit your card.

Question 7

Will this work on my asus gtx1080 even though the card isn’t made by evga?

Accepted Answer

As long as the card being installed on mirrors the evga setup (screw holes placement/size of pcb/etc). Your card's shroud will need  to be replaced with the evga hybrid shroud, but I'm sure you're already aware of that.

Question 8

Will this work with my reference EVGA GTX 980ti gpu? I can't seem to find one for it anymore.

Accepted Answer

This will work on GPUs with a single PCIe connector -- so if the 980ti is similar to the 1080 (single PCIe power connector; e.g. founder's edition) then yes.

Question 9

Will this work with a Titan X (Maxwell) model # 12G-P4-2992-KR?
I can't find the hybrid kit for this any where.

Accepted Answer

The 980ti reference hybrid kit should work with the Maxwell Titan X.  AFAIK this Pascal kit will not work with Maxwell cards.

Question 10

Will this work with the GTX 1080 strix?

Accepted Answer

ASUS is the manufacturer of the STRIX card. This cooler is specifically designed for a limited number of EVGA cards. If there is a compatibility it isn't guaranteed by EVGA. Everything is dependent upon if your card is a NVIDIA reference PCB layout and ASUS' design is IDENTICAL to the EVGA cards this cooler is designed for.  So, it MAY work with it, but it is not advised as you run a risk of overheating your cards gpu, PCB board, capacitors and/or memory, as this all depends on several factors which I, nor EVGA could guarantee as it wasn't designed specifically for your video card.  The short answer is YMMV but I wouldn't risk it.
