EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti Hybrid - How to mount radiator?

rcald2000 · Jun 21, 2015

I'm seriously considering upgrading to the Hybrid version of the 980 Ti, but I have no experience with mounting the radiator for such a card. I'm actually ordering a new case this week, so if I need to purchase a specific kind, please let me know. In this case, I don't know what I don't know. My current Ti is the standard Nvidia reference cooler.

Don't do that! If you're going to change the cooler on your 980Ti, just buy an aftermarket one. Otherwise you're wasting an incredible amount of money.

The cooler you posted is $89.99. The card I posted cost $100 more than the non-hybrid version; that's a $10 difference.

So do you know how or where I mount the radiator?

So, you're going to swap the card? Okay that makes more sense. You can mount the radiator in place of the 120mm exhaust on your case (if it's a normal ATX case). You mount the radiator with the long screws provided, which go all the way through the radiator and into the fans.

Ohhh.. That makes sense. Now I want the option of upgrading to SLI of these cards. Do I need to buy a case that has two exhaust fans?

No, just swap the fan with the radiator. You can then mount the fan that used to be there as another intake.
