GTX 980 Ti Hybrid

[OP_Chief]

Hello. I'm planning on purchasing this card in the future and from the benchmarks and temperature charts that I've seen, this card is almost perfect. The only flaw that I see in it, is the disgusting copper colored shroud that EVGA thought would be a good idea. I was wondering if this was compatible with the card, because I would much rather prefer a Silver graphics card in my black and white build rather than a copper card.

It would fit on, in fact it is designed to fit to that cooler. You can see in the installation guide that it uses a titan hybrid as an example and even mentions the 980 ti hybrid. "same as GTX 980Ti hybrid 06G-P4. Enjoy that sexy card

Yes, it is indeed compatible. I know this because I just contacted EVGA technical support and asked them on behalf of your issue. They assured me that it's 100% compatible and it's intended purposes was for people with the same complaint as yours, with the original plastic shroud on the hybrid card.

I'd hope it fits consideringvthats of the cards it made for.

Have you looked into the Gigabyte extrem waterforce card?

It costs less than the Evga hybrid and you wont have to replace the shroud.

I seen the 980, 980ti or titan hybrid section, but I didn't know if that meant 980ti hybrid or not. It was just a little confusing. 😛
