Currently saving up money for a second GTX 1070. I already know which one I want (Gigabyte Xtreme if they ever are available, G1 if they're not). My concern is that with two GPUs putting heat out directly into the case, the top card might see some pretty high temperatures. My case is a Cooler Master HAF 932, and the stock 200mm side panel fan is still in place running at full speed all the time.

Would a slot fan between the two cards help reduce the amount of heat the top card ends up dealing with?
 
Solution
I would NOT put a fan between the cards. You will probably interfere with the air flow too much.

With a side fan already, and presumably other fans on the case you probably won't have any issues.

*I suggest you worry about this AFTER you buy the other card and see if it's even an issue.

Thanks for the help. Should have it within 2 months.
