if you look further down this forum there should be a large thread regarding the FP-IN9 SLI.
like all 650i SLIs it runs a very hot northbridge & iirc the 840 is rather warm too?
If so make sure that you have good cooling.

thanks for help

quads aren't a good idea on a 650i SLI as you will struggle to get above middle 300fsbs.
Also, if you do go quad & wc make sure that you blow air over the PWM section as it's going to get very toasty.
