hello i have GTX760 OC DCII ASUS and im planing SLI in the future

i will upgrade from Seasonic M12II EVO 620W to 720W same brand

can someone from their expiriance tell me what temps should i expect i have and M5A99FX PRO R2.0

i have a very good ventilated case HAF 912+ from CM now with single card i cant go over 68c on full load while playing for hour or two (airconditioner not working) will not put the side fan couse its pulling in to much dust i had it and once my card was at 80c while it was blowing on it probably the hot air stayed on botom of the card

My specs:
AMD FX-8350 4.4GHz OC with Hyper evo 212 (Push-pull)
Asus GTX 760 DCIIOC 2Gb
M5A99FX PRO R2.0
Kingston HyperX Fury 1866MHz 2x4Gb (maybe gonna add 2 more 4x2Gb)
SSD 120 Patriot pyro - HDD 1Tb Seagate Baracuda
Seasonic M12II EVO 620W

Thank you

SLI shouldn't have huge temperature effects as long as properly ventilated and configured in way that both cards throw air out rather than accumulate it in bottom. Only if you have issues with case , you might want to buy a larger atx case or a case with more than two fans , and avoid placing your pc too close to a wall .
