Hi Everyone,
I have recently bought an additional GTX 580 SOC from gigabyte for SLI mode. The temps on a single card were amazing, however after i threw an additional card into the mix, temperatures on the same card surged past 95 degrees Celsius. Sometimes hitting around 98 degrees. The bottom card plods away at roughly 75-80 degrees which is perfectly fine.
These cards have had their factory over-clock removed and set back to reference speeds. I don't want to see the temps at stock speeds to be honest... My case is a HAF-X with an additional fan installed. I've also tried setting the desk fan i have blowing air at top speed between the GPUs. This dropped the temps to 93 degrees.. Still too hot. There is a space between the cards of about 3cm, so they're sort of close together.
Can anyone recommend anything to help me bring the temp to under 85?
I am aware that the top GPU will always be hotter.. But i was not expecting this.
Thanks to anyone in advance that can offer their guidance.
