Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) JayzTwoCents did a video with a similar SLI setup but from MSI. I'll link below but he's basically saying you should have at least a 1 slot gap in between the cards. In his case with the cards right up against each other the top card hit 84/85 degrees Celcius immediately with the fans at %100. I know it's not the exact same scenario that you're in but it's very similar. If you're not willing to swap the motherboard I'd go for the 2-slot cards but if you're ok swapping the motherboard I'd recommend getting something with 4-slot spacing between the 16x slots and use the 3-slot cards with a 4-slot SLI bridge.

How many M.2 slots do you need? Your current board has water cooling, do you want that or are you ok with air-cooled vrms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
