What should be temp of 1st gpu in SLI?

I want to add that my CPU case is CM Storm Enforcer!!

Yes.

If you are able to take away the middle HDD cage then by all means take it away to allow airflow from front fan to take full advantage, that way it'll be cooler.
If you can't remove the HDD cage (many HDDs) then you can tie another fan after the HDD cage to draw more cooler air to the graphics card.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for contacting the EVGA Customer Service Team.
My name is Nicolas Mijuskovic and I will be answering your question today.

Answer:

Hi, This can be normal. Typically the first card runs a little hotter and then it also gets the heat from the lower card. You can try switching the cards around to test this. The cards can take up to 100C and I would be worried until it gets to 90C. Regards, Nick
