Check if it's okay or if you need to adjust something
My PC settings:
Benchmark test: MSI AfterBurner
System details:
Please note, the first GPU tends to get hotter than the second one—I’m not sure why. If you can help, would you mind explaining what’s happening?

The initial GPU temperature is elevated because it's obstructed by the second component (partially). For overclocking, it's a risky situation—keep pushing until you reach a limit, then lower it to locate a steady state.

Cool computer, btw... You're unlikely to get a great upgrade on your cards since running in SLI means you'll be limited by the slower card. You could definitely try to boost the speed and check how much progress you make...

Also, why haven't you upgraded your CPU or RAM? You might notice some solid improvements there...
