Questions About My Build

Okay, Hello guys ! 

 

I recently finised building my rig: ASUS Rampage V Extreme, i75960X, Dual SLI 980ti's, with standard cooling (i'm planning on watercooling them soon), 64GB DDR4 RAM (i use it for premiere and photoshop).

 

Please help me with an answer for the following questions:

  1. One card is running more than the other. In MSI afterburner it shows that one card is constantly running at 30-40% usage, while the other is at 0-5%. Is that ok? 
  2. While I game, I would expect much more FPS with this build. For example, in League of Legends I get only 250 fps. I know its much over the 144hz of the monitor, but it's for me... Maybe the drivers are not optimized yet... or ?
  3. My processor's temps are at 45degrees Celsius, slightly overclocked (max +200mhz), with watercooler (Corsair GT100i or something like that). Are those temps ok? + the led on the pump once turned red and started making a little more noise: i restarted then everything was fine... Is it a problem with the pump and therefore the big idle temp ?

Thanks alot for your time :)

The second gpu wont be utilized if the game is not demanding,so while playing Lol,the secon gpu is off

Incorrect. If SLI is optimized properly, both GPUs will have the loads essentially split. Nowadays, GPUs usually take turns in rendering frames.
