Sorry if this seems like a newbish question but I had this thought run through my head last night. How do you control/monitor temps and fan speed on the second GPU? Because Precision with SLI disabled only monitors the primary. I just want to make sure that Im not going to fry out my card so it will keep folding for us

Wait, do you want to control fan speed or monitor temps? If your Folding on it, why bother to adjust fan speed since it'll be at 100% load always.

EVGA precision will let you set each card by itself or both at the same time (Both fan speed and clock settings). Just click the "sync" tab under your GPU's and it will set both the same or just click on each GPU and set it.

Because for some reason the cards dont do a very good job of keeping temps down when set to auto. They'll easily hit 75*C and the fan speed doesn't seem to increase very much. I'd rather have them running @ 80% fan from the get go and not worry about it. Its easier to keep them from getting that high than bringing em down once theyve gotten that high.


This must be something new on this version of Precision. Last time I was using it, it didnt "see" the second GPU if SLI wasnt enabled.
Thnks Blu.

I don't know, I just switched from Riva Tuner to Precision about a month ago and it had it then.
My only problem with precision is my settings don't stay when I reboot, but I have them saved in setting 1 (click the down arrow under the test/apply buttons), and I don't reboot often, so not a real big deal.

You must have 1.6.0. EVGA fixed that 4 days later with 1.6.1.

1.5.0 actually.

Did that, but it won't stay checked after a reboot. The program starts, but everything is back at stock settings. (the pic in my post above is not mine)

I guess I need to DL the most current one. I think I have restarted maybe 3 times since I started using it and it did not really bother me.
