980 TI Hybrid Replacement Cooler?

Go to solution Solved by danrey84,

you maybe able to pick up a broken 980ti with a reference PCB and then just switch the cooler of that too your hybrid.

about two years ago I believe is when I bought my EVGA 980TI hybrid, it's been pretty ok being able to handle whatever I really throw at it which isn't much. Right now I'm fairly certain the hybrid AIO is about done. My temps are getting a bit hot and more than that the whole thing is incredibly noisy. I can't stream at all without it's fan ramping to 100% during gameplay. 

 

So with the EVGA hyrbid PCB is there a replacement cooler I could use anybody knows? It does NOT need to be another Hybrid cooler, in fact I'd rather it not be. Could I purchase a sort of reference 980ti cooler and slap it on instead? I'd much prefer it over the liquid cooling at this point. Thanks for any help!

Have you cleaned the radiator and fin stack on the card? I recently cleaned the fins on my 970 and it went from a 747 taking off in my room to silent under full load

Yeah I've given them a pretty good scrub, Unfortunately I think there might be something wrong with the fan or cards fan connector, dunno. It used to be at first whenever I actually turned on my computer the gpu fan would immediately ramp to 100% no matter what. After Instead plugging the fan into the motherboard, it quieted down, but its still pretty loud. The rad itself sounds like it doesn't have too much liquid left in it so I'm not sure maybe there was some sort of leak. 

 

I'm a streamer so I really need the silence. I also do a lot of workstation tasks as a developer, so I'm thinking of upgrading in the future but that will have to wait till I can get the cash.
