Gorgeous isn't it?  I don't have enough for a 1080 ti though so I'm curious as to whether there will be a Poseidon VEGA edition as I can afford likely a VEGA GPU.

 

Thoughts and input appreciated

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

God I hope they have conventional air coolers for all Vega options. Restricting the Fury X to an AIO was an absolute deal breaker -- especially where potential crossfire was concerned. I like AIOs, but having one attached to every component seems ridiculous

I'm torn personally, I honestly just want the Poseidon style GPU but hybrid takes a strong second place.

Why can't we have both? Why does the reference version need to be the one with the AIO, especially when the reference was the only version available. I wouldn't have cared if the water cooled Fury X was just one of many options. On the other hand, I can see why they did it. They wanted to obfuscate the fact that it was a 400W card, after all the bad press they got for Hawaii running hot. Just more AMD smoke and mirrors.
