So at stock speeds running an EVGA 980Ti SC+ ACX2.0+ on a Furmark stress test, it started throttling speeds once I reached 88C. And I reached 88C pretty quickly, with ambient temps of around 27C. Is that normal behavior?
Ya, that's fine. Don't worry about FurMark, it's a worthless test. Gigabyte G1 980Ti is a better card that the EVGA SC+ anyway.
Hmm, I think my 1050watt should be alright I suppose. I know it will work, but it might only have 2-300 watts of overhead. I guess I could use it until it breaks. Without adding voltage to the GPUs, I'll probably be OK. Good post BTW. Thanks for the info. I like the idea of over radding as well. It gives the option for low RPM on the fans I think. Maybe I'll get crazy and go for 1500 on those 980ti's :twisted:
Maybe watch some of Jay's videos on his water cooling build. Maybe some of his tips will help.

The Fractal Design S seems like a good case for water-cooling without breaking the bank.
