Love the color coding! Makes this build one grade nicer!

Thanks man :), and yes they are very silent and they cool really well. Not going over 45 degrees celsius at all even with the small OC I put on them. My old Liquid cooling loop was with two GTX 970 G1 Gaming and CPU all water cooled. With shared heat and a small OC, my 970's with the EK block goes to about 45-48 range taking into account the shared heat from all 3 components which is very near to the AiO cooler of EVGA. The Hybrid is really is good on keeping stuff running cool without the hassle of custom loop :).

Hi, Thanks for the +1 :D. I had two GTX 970 before with EK waterblocks, cooled together with an Alphacool 360 UT60 and Phobya 60mm thick 240 rad. With Hard tubing But I have recently upgraded to this 980 Ti's. For me, I went for the Hybrid because, I found it a bit hard now to do alot of PC related work because of Work :/. But Performance wise, I OC'd the card to a stable 1380+ at the moment, the Temperatures never go over 51 degrees Celsius at all. I tested at a higher clock and it doesn't get hotter at all. My old 970's at 1450MHz with shared heat was staying at maximum 45 degrees celsius (although the custom EK block also cooled the vrm's) 45 vs 51 isn't that bad at all I think. And I don't have to maintain the AiO from the Hybrids. Although Hard Tubing genuinely looked more epic. :D but ye, it just became a bit of a hassle for me because of heavier load from work. I still got all components for hard tubing and boat loads of fittings, I might water cool the GPU with ek titan X blocks eventually :). But for now, I prioritise work, as it funds my PC and loads more of stuff :)

Excellent rig. Why you didn't install waterblock on graphic cards? You have pump and reservoir excellent for that.
