GTX 1080 Hybrid worth buying?

PCDesignerR · Dec 1, 2016

I'm considering picking up this card:

Is this a graphics card worth getting? Is anyone else using a Hybrid GTX 1080? How does it perform for you? If not this hybrid in particular, if you were going to buy a Hybrid GTX 1080, which one would you buy? What do you think the most popular Hybridized GTX 1080 is?

Thanks!

No, it isn't a great value purchase, you can get a good air cooler model of a 1080 for $150 less.
If you want the best performance however, I'd wait until the 1080tis release in Jan-Feb and get one or two of those given your extremely high end specs.

Fair comment! But A hybrid has to offer something over just air cooled right? When those do come out I'm planning on 2-way SLI-ing.

Not necessarily.
For an odd $350 you can get a full EKWB setup including rad, res, waterblocks and CPU block.
I'd get two cheap 1080tis when the aftermarket cards release and get an EK setup then.
