Will it fit (EVGA FTW Hybrid)

Go to solution Solved by Gdbryant91,

I'll just go with the EVGA FTW 1080 with the ACX 3.0 cooler, easy decision with the recent price drop. Thanks for all the help.

I am planning on upgrading my Gpu to an EVGA GTX 1080 FTW Hybrid and my current case is the Silverstone RVX01. Not sure if the gpu will fit without cramping the tubing? Tried looking up images on a google search and didn't find much. Thanks guys!

It looks like the card and rad will fit but the only thing i see being tricky is power connectors.  Since they stick straight up they might hit that hard drive cage.  It might be possible to get that EVGA power thing that moves the power connectors to the side but even that might be too tall.  Really its just the height of the card that looks like it could be a problem.

Not sure about the tubing, but you have room in the top for a 120, so you can definitely fit the cooler. 

 

However, EVGA Hybrid cards are loud as fuck, so consider getting a standard EVGA ACX3 based card. It's a good cooler. 

idk

Great. White_face.nil is in this thread...

 

It should. The case has a 120mm fan location on top and at the back. Since the Hybrid is using a 120mm radiator it should fit. Whether you'll need to jostle it in or not, I don't know.

How do you guys think if I went with the Asus Strix 1080 would it be a better fit?

I've heard mixed things about the Strix, mostly positive though. All Strix 1080 cards are based on the same custom PCB, and I don't know how they're binned but they overclock all similarly. Go for it if you want to haha
