So I have a unique problem,

I've already worked to try to remedy it but I'm looking for any additional recommendations

Setup:
Fractal Node 202
Geforce GTX 980Ti Gaming 6G Golden Edition

I'm merely looking for fan recommendations for anyone that may have the same setup, currently I use two Fractal 1200 RPM case fans connected via Molex to get them to run full speed at all times however, there's very little if any room for overclocking (and that card can overclock like a champ)

It will almost hit thermal throttle temps in games as low demand as Overwatch...

has anyone ran into this problem in this specific situation or am I barking up too small of a tree?
 
remove the dust filters under the gpu and try to get the fans setup to get air circulating. but with this case do not expect the same oc as a regular case. its just too small.
 
You could try a AIO for the GPU, but VRMs may be a worry. Is there any possibility that your card can take a blower (reference) fan and shroud? I only ask as this would push the heated air straight out of the case instead of just blowing it around inside.
