As I stated in the topic I'm trying to decide which GPU cooling system from corsair I should buy, I'm not cheap and I'm willing to save up for a gtx 980Ti but will this be suitable or should I try another? Keeping in mind that I'll be experimenting with overclocking and from what I've learned from other posts/articles heat is a serious thing to consider and this corsair GPU cooler seems to be the right direction to turn to. Thanks ....

Bump to the EVGA hybrid. My EVGA 980ti hybrid is overclocked to 1500Mhz and it never exceeds 52C, even under elongated high load sessions in hot ambient temps. I have my rad mounted to the rear exhaust in my 780T (my profile pic is outdated). I suggest you try that setup, although you could also mount it to the front intake (as shown in my profile pic) or roof exhaust. You have lots of options for rad/fan mounting in that case.

I'm willing to spend $500, aslo I noticed those EVGA hybrid GPU's with the water cooler attached to them. I wasn't sure weather those would be better than Corsair so I figured that I would be better off buying one of Corsair's GPU coolers. I'm really lost in picking one ....
