Hi,

Recently installed 2x 5870 crossfire. Top card is on average 10 degrees hotter than the bottom. I'm using air cooling, I have a HAF 932 with 8 fans, two blowing out at the top, one blowing out at the back, two blowing in at the front and four blowing in on the side.

Now, the two cards are -very- close together with my motherboard. There is about 1/3 of an inch of space between them. I tried placing a 92mm fan at the back of the two cards, sort of angled down to blow air into the crack between them. No dice.

Anyone have some advice on a way to get some more air into the top card ?

Thanks.
