Hello. I am using two GTX 1080s with the asrock x99m extreme 4 board in SLI (Asus founder's edition) so they have the 1 fan. Under heavy load, I'm experiencing at least 10-15 degrees C temperature differences although both are low (50 and 65). The bottom GPU is hotter, and I'm suspecting its from the top GPU blowing hot air directly onto the card.
Is there anything I can do for this? Moving the bottom card down to another slot isn't an option as the PSU would then be blocking half 3/4 of the fan. The only thing I can think of is adding some sort of "blocker/diversion" into the PCI-e slot inbetween the 2 cards, where it would deflect the heat from the fan into the open space of the case which has really good airflow. That, or finding out how to control fan speed of each GPU individually but this doesn't entirely solve the issue.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
