Gigabyte GTX 770

Does this card work well in SLI. I heard that one guy's cards got really really hot with two gigabyte cards. I am not sure if gigabyte is good for SLI. Does anybody know. And I also have a Corsair 750d with stock fans if you guys are curious about airflow.

Need to know more about your case, airflow, fans, motherboard, etc. There are a lot of variables in this.

Two high performance graphics cards can be hard to keep cool in a smaller case (at least I has been for me) with restricted airflow. I have a Coolermaster Scout Sniper and I wasn't able to keep 2 X AMD 7850's cool (not even with custom graphic board coolers), nor was I able to keep two EVGA 770 SC's sufficiently cool
 


I have the Corsair 750d with its 3 stock af140 fans. I have a gigabyte 990fx ud3 motherboard with an AMD fx-8350, and a noctua u9b se2 for the cpu cooler, I will have noctua 140mm fans replacing the af 140mm by the time that I would have 2 cards. I can add 3 top fans to my case if that would help. Is there anything else that you want me to tell you about? And also, would more intake fans be better for SLI, or more exhaust fans?
