I'm using 2x MSI gtx 980 ti gaming cards in SLI.
I'm trying to figure out if there's a custom fan profile I could set for either "both" or "each card" to help them stay cooler.
I reach temps like 82c under load in games and I know it's normal and the cards can still operate at that point but I'd rather try and make sure they last for a long time. Would you put a more agressive FAN PROFILE on the bottom card or the top? or both?
I'm beginning to think I should have either bought reference cards (to exhaust the heat out the back) or reference cards to remove their heatsink and make put them in a custom water loop.
