Heavy modded Fallout 4 in heavy interior textured rooms may cause my gpu's to shut down computer at 60°.

CPU at max doesn't go above 45° due to the awesome Karken liquid cooler. I play games in 3400 x 1440 resolution. I have two PSUs at 1800 total watts(24 pin adapter). I7 5930k @4.3 clock speed. (Problem happens at default clock speed too.). I use Asus ai suite 3 to configure my system.

Case is cool inside until the 60° temperature is reached. A lot of hot air in case at that point. Gpu hot to touch. 200mm intake fan in the front. Liquid cooler is in push/pull (4 fans) out the top of the case. GPU fans/radiators have one pulls out the back and the other pulls out the bottom of the case. The case sits on an end table. Room temperature is never above 70°F. It can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 5 days to get my computer to boot again.

Is computer turning off due to the hot air in case? Or is my 60° gpu's turning off my system? 95% of the time my gpu's run in the 40's. There a way to tell system not to shut off? I didn't track the mother board temperature.

Suggestions for me?

    Does the system shutoff when you run the cards individually?

    Never tried. SLI related you think?

    Hard to say. It could be a faulty card, psu problem, or some other piece of hardware is overheating.

    System did boot after taking one of the GPU's out.  I then did a shut down and plugged it back in and it did boot up.  I have a EVGA 1050 watt PSU as my main PSU.  I RMA my original PSU due to BIOS detecting a power surge so this PSU is about 3 months old.  I have ordered a PSU tester to check it out.

    Take out both cards, and put in the other one you did not put in (test them both, single cards).
    What motherboard do you have? I bet it is an X99. :P
    Running 2 psu's is kinda iffy also (I used to do that also, with a 20pin + 24pin connector), and it just sometimes does not work.
    That 1050 psu should be fine with sli.
    Also, check the psu outputs in the bios. I saw mine was going very low on the 3.3 volt, JUST in the bios with no load, so had to rma the psu (EVGA psu also).
    Good luck, I hope you get it sorted out.
