Even OC? It will be running at 100% load for extended periods while rendering.

At 100% with a OC profile applied the max temp I'd say you'll see with a 1050Ti is 65c. 

looking to upgrade my system, noticed that newegg has some decent cards on sale. 

are refurbished cards any good?

looking at getting two of these: https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814137128

also are two of those cards even compatible with my AsRock z75 pro3?

I currently run a MSI 7870 Hawk overclocked to around 1275MHZ

The 1050Ti doesn't get hot enough to need a dual fan cooler, I'd just buy the single fan one that I picked out for you.
