EVGA GTX 980 ti Hybrid cooling

[Spike_xps720]

Do you think using fan to take colder air from outside will work. I am talking about two GPU cooling at bottom of case (fan are below of radiators sucking air from under PC case. The other option will be to reverse fans to pool air thru video card's radiators outside of case which will be bottom.

I would add good High Static pressure fans to the top and bottom of the radiator and have them push air through the radiator and out of the case. Doing so should allow them to pull the clean air from your front fan.

If you already have hybrid cooling on your 980 Ti's, you should not run into any issues with temperatures. Just focus on have both intake and exhaust fans in your case. Preferably in a front intake, rear exhaust configuration. Bottom of the case does not provide adequate ventilation, the top of the case could/should be used for your AIO CPU cooler.

Thank you for quick response. The video card should not get any hotter than 53C and I not planning to OC them. In theory hotter air go up. Front big 200mm fan move air to back and to the top of case and CPU push pool configuration with 4 fan (2X 200mm and 2X 140mm). 1X 140mm fan in the middle of case tilted helping to move air even faster.
Power supply has a fan at bottom and I am not sure if the fan pushing or pooling air.
I will watch temperatures closely to see if something getting hot. Here in Phoenix AZ hot have totally different meaning. 😉
One more question I have is if my card should glow. I enable this in Nvidia Experience program but not see any LED light.
And one more 200mm fan on side panel.

The way you have it set up should be fine, you could add a fan to each radiator if you want for a push /pull on those rads but it shouldn't be necessary. With it drawing air from in the case and exhausting it out like it is now, the case really wont be that hot at all or shouldn't be, especially with water on the cpu too.

And no LEDS for the hybrid 🙁 Nice SLI, I'll be doing that sometime in next 6 months, when we get a 144 HZ G Sync 4K monitor , if one comes soon.

EDIT: Oops, I just looked quick and had to look at mine real quick, so that's drawing from the bottom and putting back in the case...It should be fine but watch temps. I have mine up at the top exhausting out of the case and it puts out some heat, especially after an hour or two.

If it gets too hot that way, just switch the fans back to the other side of the rad and have it exhaust out the bottom...your PSU is exhausting out the bottom. If your temps stay good the way it is there, then I would just leave it as it is.

If I add two fans to create push/pull at bottom where should I connect the power to those additional fan? Can I use a adapter and draw power from video card as origin fan?

I don't see why not, they don't take a lot of power for each one, or you could pick up a small cheap fan controller and run it off the motherboard if the fan wires wont reach to your motherboard or all the fan slots are already taken up.

Thank you all. I ordered two:
COUGAR 12CM CFD Blue LED Hydraulic (Liquid) Bearing Ultra Silent Fan 1200RPM, 64.4CFM, 16.6dBA
and
Coboc TX4SPL2-6 6" Sleeved 6 inch 1 to Two(2) x 4-pin TX4 PWM Fan Power Splitter Cable(Net Jacket)

Will install those on top of radiators and LED lights should make everything sparkle as Christmas tree.
I used every Asus X99 fan connectors and I hope video card going to control speed of those fan according to temp.
