I have a 680 OC'd to 1228MHz and ram at 6682MHz, because of this I've had to adjust the fan curve to 76% and it's still hovering around 71c, it's really freaking loud. The performance is fine with my OC but I figure with a 780 it wouldn't need to be OC'd to keep up. So I thought either replace the cooler ($130) or give the 680 to my wifes PC, sell her 560 Ti and just buy one of the fancy 780 cards. Thoughts?
I found this closed loop liquid VGA cooler that fits and would help lower my noise AND temps but I've never used this company before so I like to get input from people who have.

If nothing else I'd step up to the EVGA 780 Classified ACX or the Galaxy HOF (I won't do SLI, I did it with my 460s and had microstutter) so I wouldn't have to use an OC to keep playing games at max settings.
