Important Information

Warranty for the GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit

Note

EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit is an AIO Water Cooling System. You do not need to add any 
coolant, and the system is completely self-contained. EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kits have been 
leak-tested at the factory before shipping to customers.
EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kits are exclusively designed for EVGA's non-reference PCB GTX 
1080 Ti FTW3 graphics cards and were not designed to fit any other graphics cards.

Your EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit comes with a 1 (one) year warranty. Refer to your GTX™ 
1080 Ti manufacturer’s warranty information before installing the EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit. 
Should you damage your GTX™ 1080 Ti graphics card during the installation process, EVGA will not be 
held responsible for any physical damage of your EVGA GTX™ 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit, case, mother-
board or any associated hardware when damage is caused by improper installation.

1.To mount the radiator, it is recommended that the radiator be installed at a level above the HYBRID    

 

graphics card.  This will reduce pump noise and the potential to create an air bubble in the loop.

  
2.The radiator will fit mounting holes designed for a 120mm x 120mm case fan.
3.The default setting for the HYBRID’s radiator/fan is to blow through the radiator and outside the 

  

 

chassis. For that reason, we recommend installing the radiator at the back or top of the chassis. 

 
4.If installing the radiator in the back of the chassis, we recommend positioning the tubes at the bottom 

 

of the radiator.

5.Make sure that you leave some slack in the tubing lines to prevent damage to the tubing or internal 

 

 

fittings. If the tubes are twisted too much or pulled too tightly, you may cause damage to the 

   

 

pump/radiator or cause the HYBRID kit to begin leaking.

6.When ready, line-up the radiator with the mounting holes on the chassis. On the outside of the 

   

 

chassis use #14 washers and screws to fasten the radiator to the chassis.

7.Once fully mounted, use the remaining #13 cable ties to secure the radiator fan wire to the tubing.
8.Your EVGA GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 HYBRID Kit installation is now fully complete!
