Hi guys i have realized that there is a problem with my 660ti sli setup. when i play bf3 i see that my 2nd gpu is staying cool while my first gpu tends to rise in temperature very quickly this usually causes the game to experience wired glitches and it forces me to stop playing for some time. i tried to change the fan speeds with msi afterburner aswell but still the same thing happens one gets really hot while the other stays cool.does anyone know why this happens and how i can prevent it? 

 

 

i usually get temperatures like gpu1 at 70 and gpu2 at 40
