Hi I got gtx 560ti in sli. Card one under load sets at 97 and card 2 at 95 degrees. I'm using msi afterburner to monitor temps. I've read these cards are great to oc but I'm at max temps already. Looking at the heat sink they are well built but the one fan just seems lacking even at full blast air just seems to roll out instead of blowing (won't move a piece of paper if I hold it by the exhaust)

I would like to oc these but not till I get the temp issue fixed.

I'm good at making things and have machines to to cut another fan hole.

Question is can I run the extra fan off the power the stock fan is on for variable speed or should I just hook up to the 12v and run it at max speed?
 


Power down and replace that fan and HSF!

This is what can happen when a fan fails on a 560Ti :-
