Will 4870 coolers work on 4890?

As they are essentially the same card.... I need a quieter solution to cool my clocked asus 4890...

Thanks

Lots of threads about the interwebs with people who have used Arctic Cooling Acceleros and Scythe Musashis and had good results.

I've put a twin turbo on my 4890 and it's fine...temps down c10-15 and it's nice and quiet compared to stock cooler and even when oc'd to 975/1000 temp not over 60c when fans running at 75%
