soo it temps will be extremely low or high... 😁😁😁😁😂😂😂😂😅😅😀😀😀😚😚😀😀😀😀😀😀😏
FYI; MSI afterburner and CTRL + F curve is the best way to OC for me.....ive had to undervolt like to 1.025V @2020MHZ to get the card running under 120% power limit and not throttle so much.....liquid cooled of course!!!!
I know you guys needed to get the PCB separate from the main cooling plate for the thermistor install, but if someone at home is using this method with the eVGA Hybrid cooler, you only need to do the following steps. Looking at the front face of the card (blower fan pointed at you) with the PCI-E connector pointed downward.
1. Pull the 2 hex screws closest to the I/O panel/bracket. This is the far left side of the shroud, for reference. One is on each side of the card.
2. Pull the 2 hex screws on the left side of the blower fan, then the 2 hex screws on the right side of the blower fan.
3. Pull gently on the left part of the shroud with the clear window on it and it should come off.
4. With the left side of the shroud off you should see 4 tiny screws, two towards the top of the PCB, two towards the bottom of the PCB, on either side of the vapor chamber. Once those are out, pull gently on the blower fan shroud and it should pop up over the blower fan. Go SLOWLY and if you disconnect the power cable towards the top of the card, make a note to reconnect it during reassembly. This powers the GEFORCE GTX LED panel.
5. Disconnect the blower fan power cable.
6. Flip the card over and remove the four BIG spring screws holding the vapor chamber in. The vapor chamber should drop right off the card. BE CAREFUL!
7. Remove old thermal paste from GPU, BE CAREFUL!
8. Install the eVGA Hybrid block to the card using the 4 spring screws from the kit, making sure the coolant tubes are coming out of the top of the card when you have finished.
9. Locate the pump power cable and plug it into the blower fan power header on the GPU PCB. This cable has a pass through so that it can still power the blower fan. Connect the blower fan to the pump power cable as well.
10. Now you will need to gently fiddle with the new wiring you have added while reinstalling the right side blower fan shroud. When you think it's sitting flush and ready to be screwed in, be sure to spin the blower fan a bit with your finger and make sure it is not obstructed AT ALL. If it is, keep fiddling with the wiring until it spins completely freely and silently.
11. Reinstall the 2 hex screws to the right of the blower fan and the 4 tiny screws towards the top and bottom of the PCB. 2 of these screws are now a bit harder to install due to the water cooling tubing. You will also notice that you may have to put a bit of pressure on that upper "arm" of the blower fan shroud to get it under the tubing and lined up for the screws. Just use gentle pressure and it will all go together fine.
That's it! Now you can mount your fans to the radiator, sort out power for them, and install the card into your setup. While not for a beginner, a lot of the disassembly shown in the video can be skipped and the card's backplate doesn't need to be removed at all.
Thank you Grant!
My pleasure
Had my 1080TIs sli hybrid modded about a month ago, its thanks to you guys providing all the details. Those tests definitely answer lots of the questions we have, so thank you for all the hard work.
I'm starting to become very nervous, my EVGA hybrid cooling kit is on its way from Amazon. I've never done video card surgery before but I'm fairly confident I'll be able to handle it. Thanks for the detailed video! Should come in real handy. GAMERS NEXUS FTW!!
did you order the ones made specifically for the titan xp/ 1080 ti ?
I ordered the kit for my specific card line's PCB, which isn't a Titan or 1080ti, but a 1080 FTW edition. I found that the card's heat was choking my CPU thus causing undesirable temps. So, by directly exhausting most of the heat out the back of my Enthoo Evolv mini itx case the CPU should be receiving fresh cool air fed from the front by the stock 200mm fan.
oh I see okay
Just did the hybrid 1080ti build nexus has up and it's worked out nicely after 6 hours of testing. Good luck with yours!
Lowered my temps again by using thermal grizzly conductonaut and 2 x noctua f12s push pull.
Love this and this channel. Honestly i would never be able to get this type of hardware nor trust myself to do these own mods. Love watching you guys do this though :)
The first 4 Screws you removed on the top are JUST for the Glass, nothing else. So you can let them screwed in and still taking the top part off.
We were going to try and leave the left side of the shroud on and route the tubes through it, hence removing the acrylic. Wouldn't fit, though.
I just realized you have those NZXT pucks behind you lol :P
10:51 - "What's my order of operations here?" PEMDAS of course :P
Question, which Evga's cooling solution did you use??? the normal SC one or the FTW3 version???
Also, is it possible to use its vram and vrm cooling solution from package that it came with rather then using the stock Xp cooling???
Like the copper vram and such? Does it even fit at all? ever tried it?
If so, what about the vrm that it came with the hybrid package? Does it even mount properly? Should do another video on it, Very curious about the results and would love to see it, thanks.
Cause thinking about doing this in the future, reason why I asked. Kindly reply soon, thanks.
Great video, keep up the good work. Love it.
When you pushed the pump into the chip and then pulled it up to check wether it was making contact, you should have wiped the paste and applied new one. The way you did it you risk getting air bubbles and decreasing the heat transfer capabilities of the paste.
I love these hybrid mods. I know you guys are busy, but id like to see a hybrid mod on an old hot card like a R9 290X and see how it helps.
I wonder how it'll perform with a 240mm/360mm rad. Steve, can you experiment with that, please? Thanks. 😉
Daan Suurmeijer. Steve is a magician who can make it possible. Have faith. 😉
Daan Suurmeijer Alphacool sells some pre-filled 240mm rads for their GPU-AIOs, the "Eiswolf". You can just connect the rad with the tubes using the preinstalled quick connects on the Eiswolf. No additional cooling fluid needed.
You can also buy a pre-filled 360mm rad for the Eiswolf: www.alphacool.com/shop/radiators/active-radiators/21363/alphacool-nexxxos-eiswolf-/-eisbaer-ready-st30-full-copper-360mm-radiator
you guys should make a custom shroud .
Is this a standard aio water cooler or does it have a special bracket to attach to the card?
the evga product for the hybrid include the piece for the tubes so you wil cover it ... i see that you only buy the aio cooling and not the hybrid set...
Here we go again.
*zip*
Where does the radiator fan power connector go to? No more power fan header on gpu board? Use mobo's fan header?
Is that a special Titan X cooler or is that the 1080/1070 EVGA cooler as available on their site?
Pretty Cool. So, hopefully the temps will be real low and the clocks really high , :D
Make your own waterblock, that would be even more interesting
On a scale of 1 to 10, how difficult would you say this is to do for someone that doesn't normally work on video cards? I've built my own system several times etc but never done mods on a video card before.
Awesome, As Always ;)
Is the screw head snapping experience online, or did it occur off-camera?
are you going to reuse that thermal paste? I like to replace it, no idea how great their thermal paste is ....
Any ideas how a setup with an NZXT Kraken G12 bracket would compete with a setup like that? Are they any good? I have a graphics card with an aftermarket cooler in a quite small case and I'm thinking about putting it on water.
Why don't you test the Nvidia FE cards without the acrilic panel on and the stock heatsink? I think would be interesting to see if making it open air style cooler makes a difference or not
the panel is there to ensure that the air is pushed through the heatsink and not around it
does the EVGA one work better than the arctic hybrid?
Is this still viable for 2021? The CLC has the tubes out the top and not the side of the water block now.
I watched part one of Titan Xp mod and then went to Titan XP part 2 mod .... went down the comments section all were 8 months ago, and then I noticed it was the old Titan O_ O lul
Well, I got confused because the cards were the same :) but guess the name led me there too ^ . ^
I believe the official name of the 'chopstick' is a spudger
Please can you try Liquid Metal TIM, it can make a huge difference
So this mod is possible on a original Titan aswell? (780 series)
im working on something similar for my 1080ti ftw 3 (huge card) ... but im using NZXT (we shall see) and im going to take apart that loop and tie my two nzxt pumps together with one rad. (again we will see)
I wonder if they will ever have a 240 mm or 280 mm AIO (CLC) cooler like this for GPUs.
will it work if i use an "EVGA CLC 280mm All-In-One RGB LED CPU Liquid Cooler, 2x FX13 140mm PWM Fans"
So, the mounting holes on a gpu for a heatsink are in similar positions to those for a cpu socket?
Wretlaw120 no that is GPU cooling modding kit by evga
DrLarson Oh, I see
God Bless you steve i will be doing this to two off my titans . I have a question for oyu though. I am getting low gpu utilization for gtav running in sli .. my gpus are about 65- 75 utilized most of the time which is directly resulting in fps dips and drops. My cpu is used at 30 % and i have 32gb of ram, i also have it installed on a ssd and have 1200watts psu.. all tied on a rampage v edition 10 board. bf1 gets about 110- 130 fps in sli 4k ultra with 95 being the .1% low however gtav dips all the way down to 41 fps in 4k 2x msaa or no msaa. If you can help me out with this I will be sure to buy some gear from the gn store. I am also a long time subscriber now :) just want to know if you could replicate this on the latest drivers and give me your input as what you think it could be. Thanks
poor guy , wont se his titan any time soon TM
RiP Grant
WOOOW They actually went so far as to render a totally fake version of their card to back up their "this isn't a gaming card" bullshit.
Makes me want AMD Vega to kick ass.
Grant is grand.
👌
Are they using the 1080 Ti or 1080 Hybrid AIO?
They're all the same. We're actually using one that technically shipped with the 980 Ti Hybrids, but there haven't been any changes to the liquid cooler itself.
Gamers Nexus But if you weren't using an AIO specifically made for the Titan Xp or 1080 Ti you'd have to cut off some parts of the shroud right? Or would you just need to put the hybrid on and not use the shroud at all?
The liquid cooler doesn't impact installation as they're all the same, it's the shroud. We don't install any special shrouds for these mods. You'd probably be able to use a 1080 Ti conversion kit for the Titan Xp if you wanted the shroud. We just don't use them.
Gamers Nexus Do you have any suggestions for which cooler to buy for the 1080 Ti FE from EVGA? The ones made specifically for the 1080 Ti FE are always out of stock so that's not an option :/
still waiting for sea hawk review!
The manufacturers don't have any to send right now!
Gamers Nexus buy one
There is absolutely no way we'd make ROI on that. They're not in stock online, anyway, and we've got plenty of other 1080 Tis in the queue. We'll exercise patience and wait for the next review round.
Gamers Nexus appreciate your videos .
i bought one personally , but i have to wait 2 months for it to arrive
Cut the heatsink in half
To see if there's a vapor chamber?
interesting... 👍
