Cooler for 6950?

I tried it at that setting with a single 12cm fan @ max (1140) resting against it and it peaked at 72 degrees. Absolutely silent. :D

Happy days :D
I'd ask what your VRM temps are like, but if you're not seeing any artifacts in heaven, you're probably just fine. Still, stick another one next to it and you're guaranteed to be ok.

My setup had to deal with a hot OC, so that explains why I had to go to certain lengths to get it where I wanted I guess :)

You may see a bit of a difference when you put your side panel back on though.
 
Yeah I probably will, I've got my cpu fan switched off as well now in idle and my desktop is quieter than a laptop. :D

At first I thought the only remaining noise was coming from my psu fan but it's actually the whirring of the hard drive!
