Greetings,
I'm owner of 2x Matrix 780Ti, from what I can tell You running these two cards in SLI with stock yet so nice looking cooler was a nightmare regarding of temperatures even with only factory overclock during longer gaming sessions - other components were hot as hell because of that too. Are You're talking about 66 degree or 69 as it's advertised on http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/MATRIXGTX980P4GD5/overview/ - because if nothing changed in fan and cooler construction then it's only marketing trick. I was fooled with 70 degree temperature on http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/ROG_MATRIXGTX780TIP3GD5/ while in reality it was at 78-82 with single card depending on which game was running. With two cards temps were around 86 on top one and if I was overclocking VRM temp could ocasionally jump even to 120C with side doors open... I changed a little Your picture with arrows how hot air was blowing out of my gpus. You may try changing fan orientations on front or side door if fan is present but it won't totally solve the problem. It was not poor thermal paste or bad fan configuration in my case. If I was You I strongly suggest You return one of the cards if You still can and please don't make my mistake with running two of these on air cooling. One card is a beast, even my version of 780Ti Matrix - I'm still angry on myself I decided to buy second one because it caused me more problems than benefits. In the end I decided to watercool these two so it's at last cool and quiet but it costed me about 900-1000 euro to collect all liquid equipment.
Regarding led visualizer - do You want to change ROG power load indicator with it? If so then I'm afraid it's not possible, at least it wasn't on my Matrix. Maybe I'm not correct but led visualizer is working with stock "Titan" like looking coolers.
BTW. Sorry but I must ask - sweet SLI bridge, it's from DIY or it's available to buy?
