My old 4870x2 as most do has an overheating problem. It only applies to one of two GPUs - GPU nr 1 in stress goes up to 90 degrees, GPU no 2 in stress only up to 69. It is natural as one GPU gets heated air after the other one.

But when I use Furmark or an application that does not recognize two GPUs and only utilizes one all the stress goes to GPU1 instead of cooler GPU2. Can I level that or change the default "go to" GPU, name GPU no 2 the number 1 GPU?

Thanks for help.

i do not believe you can choose the gpu's individually, the second gpu doesnt have any video output hardware only gpu 1 and they are both linked by a pci-e bridge chip.
