you could try adding a 120mm fan inside your case to help cool them gpu's. The problem with the gtx 295 is that their is a design flaw, intead of the gpu blowing hot air out the back it actually blows it into the case so that isn't going to help. If still no joy after adding the extra fan you will have to look towards watercooling. The gtx 295 that you have is it a single PCB or dual PCB?
PCB=Printed Circuit Board. Has it got two gpu's on one circuit board or a single gpu per circuit board?
Hello To All Guy's I Just Want to Inform All Of You : DONT BUY THE ASUS PRODUCT BECAUSE THEY DONT ACCPET RESPONSIBILITY OF FAULTY PRODUCT!!!!!!!! I CONNECTED TOO MANY TIME FOR CHANGING MY CARD BUT THEY SAID "WE REFUSE YOUR REQUEST" I HATE ASUS I WILL COMPLAIN THIS COMPOANY SOON FOR MY MONEY BACK!
If I understand correctly, you supplied the card's power using the cables you got with the video card right? You shouldn't do that - you should provide power for it directly from your power supply unit, using the provided 6-pin and 8-pin PCI-E power connectors. Secondly, ad a 120mm or 140mm fan to the left side of your case which will suck cold air into the case and hopefully help cool the card. If this doesn't help the card is definately faulty and you should replace it for another one.
