Too hot.

Are you using afterburner? You at 20% power? What hashing speed are you getting there?

You need a fan bro.

- Afterburner, no. Watching temps/fan with Trixx but no adjustments of clocks etc yet. Recommendations welcome. (Do I void any warranties when over clocking?)
- Not sure what power I'm at. Again tell me.
- Getting ~550kh per card.

They're in a case (butt up next to each other) I can run the bottom one by itself and runs at 70 C but whenever I put the top one on. Bang, up to 100 C. Just installing another fan now straight onto the gpu.

I'm aware they can run hotter than average cards, so I asked a tech at a PC shop if it was too hot and he said "Is the card failing?" and I said no. "Then it's not too hot." But we both agreed obviously lower is better.

Any recommends welcome.

[Update] I had the fan on the side of the case on extract. I flipped the fan around and temperatures dropped by a couple of degrees C. (so still 97 C). Using GUIMiner=scrypt 'high usage' but even on low usage the temps get to in the 90s

So the tech thinks it's not too hot hmmmm... does the tech get to repair your machine when it melts?

Seriously, take the bottom card out and build another rig OR buy an extender for the bottom card OR severely lower your hashrate. You're going to kill both cards.
