So I finally managed to get my files moved over for fallout 4 after a new build. I started playing and my gpu1 gets too hot. I quit when it hit 196 as I've heard 200 is the danger zone. My new board had a review that I read before I bought it from someone that said they returned it because running SLI in adjacent slots made gpu1 run too hot. That's exactly what I'm running into. I purchased over winter break planning to have the 1080ti come out at CES so that I could switch to a single card. That obviously fell through and now it looks like we are indefinite hold on the 1080ti and my move to a single card.
I'm wondering about the real gains I'm seeing running SLI? Will I really notice a difference in fallout 4 if I take the second card out so that the first can keep itself cool? They are old 2gb 560ti's.
The second card runs in the 120's, so when I go to a single card, I should be good, and by the time I go to SLI (if I ever do that again) I'll water cool them, but right now I'm stuck until May or June at least it sounds like.
Thanks for any thoughts.
