Hi - I'm new to SLI and just added a second GTX 660 (GTX660-DC2O-2GD5) to my system.
Base System:
Asus P6X58D-E
Intel i7 - 930 at 3.36Ghz
1 x Scythe SCMG-2100 Sleeve CPU Cooler, AC5 paste
2 x CORSAIR XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Triple Channel Kit at 1600 for 12GB DDR
Case - Corsair Carbide Series 400R
PS: 1 x CORSAIR TX Series CMPSU-750TX 750W
C-Drive - Kingston Hyper X 120GB SSD
3 x Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS 500GB - RAID 5
Monitor: Monoprice MPLE27QP
I have two fans in front, one for the CPU exit, one at the bottom in, and the Power supply.
Cards are next to each other in x16 slots. BIOS is confirmed the same in both cards.
One cards always seems to run 10-12°C hotter, even at the desktop. In full on gaming, the cards are running 80-90° with temps a little closer together.
Is this normal?
Should I be concerned and do something?
