Hello everyone,
I just got two brand new GTX 980 SOC graphics cards from GALAX.
The cards run great, especially when I had only one.
The card ran 1500MHz easily, with only a 12mV increase in voltage at about 78 degrees celsius.
Now, however, I have put in a new card and the temperatures have changed drastically.
The first card now runs at 80 degrees celsius, at stock speeds, not even overclocked.
However, the second card is chilling at around 60 degrees, easily able to hit the overclocks.
For airflow, I have two intakes at the front, one 140mm exhaust at the back, a PSU oriented fan-side up, and two Corsair SP120's on my H100i Radiator. The SP120's are intakes, people have advised me to switch them to exhaust so that the only intakes in my system are in the front.
Is this a good idea?
I do not know if this temperature difference is normal, as it is my first build and first SLI case, so I am not used to it.
Thank You,
ProLeopard
