Well I got my other card today. Works good but it runs hot and uses more power than my other card which gives it zero room to overclock. I tried reapplying the tim on the card and it didn't help drop the temps.
 
Got 180 fps in heaven benchmark with the cards at stock clocks. 

Do you think that could be attributed to the difference between any two cards.  No two cards are the same.  At idle my card runs about like your second card (~30C).  In F4 it'll run up to 62C, and there the GPU clock is about 1750MHz to 1800MHz.  I'll double check again this evening and post back here.  Stock clocks, right?
 
I guess my point is, that doesn't look alarming to me.

Yep.

Curious, how much more power & how much hotter.

Temps taken after 4 loops of heaven... One card runs at 62-63c while the other runs at 69-70c. One card used up to 109% power while the other used 118%. One card idles at 25c while the other idles at 28c.

Normally one card in the primary slot runs hotter in idle as it is connected to the monitor and the other card in SLI is only used in 3D apps/games when supported.

I tested the cards individually and the results didn't change.

Mine also idles at 28c.   Under full load with custom fan curve it hits 69c max.  Hopefully next week I'll be ordering the second card. 

How high are you running your fans?  The highest I had was 75% before it got too loud.
Went with EK blocks now.

I have it set very aggressive.  At 75c it's at 100% so at 69c its at 92%.   It is definitely noisy but that doesn't bother me.  I always have a headset on so I don't hear it.  But I'm also running 9 noise blocker eloop 1800rpm fans and 4 noise blocker 1400rpm fans so there is a lot of fan noise there anyway.

That's a lot of fans.  I can't deal with the noise.  Heat>Noise

Congrat's on your new cards, Sajin. Glad you got the bad one taken care of so quickly. I would enjoy one of those ,some day....lol I will be stuck in 980 land for a bit, but hey they work. Can I ask how much they cost, individually?  Also just noticed your member title, Ha! I like it.
