So you were the one who nabbed the £419 card. After much deliberating I have gone for one of the £399 Gigabyte 780Ti cards bit of a gamble but I want to come back from the dark side and give 3d a go.

Crosses fingers...

Yep, though I think I'll try to DSR it. It runs too hot and loud for my liking (for a custom cooler).
Not sure what else I could get though.

I'm actually going to try and send the card back. Performance is great and idle noise is probably the quietest I've heard, but under load it isn't brilliant...
It's actually louder than the reference card and runs at around 80C. I was expecting a bit more.

Louder than what reference card?
 
Exactly....

By all accounts the Windforce coolers are supposed to be quiet. I remember having the Gigabyte 580 Windforce and that wasn't loud.

EDIT... Thinking back, I've also had a Gigabyte 770 4GB with the same said cooler which wasn't loud at all.

Don't know if it helps but my GHz WF 780Ti plays at between 65-75c on default fan settings. It's not noisy either. I was thinking of water cooling it but CBA as I can't actually hear it in my HAFX case.
 
68% is about 3000rpm on my 780 windforce which i cant hear over my nzxt 630 case fans on low , thats about where mine tops out temp wise as my fan profile is 1-1 , thats with a 1267core,((ambient moslty 20-30c when gaming) stock it sits lower, pay to check some reviews see what they say but i do tend to agree if its sounding loud stock its a issue

Going to ask a silly question , seen you review link, try lowerring the clocks to have it boost to 1100 not 1200+ and listen since they say the none GHZ is much better temp/noisewise (yes i know its not idea but if the temps/noise still remain a issue i'd blame the cooler fitment , Otherwise maybe its just a bit small for the clocks

I can hear mine at 36%/1600rpm. You must have some loud case fans :p

Lol i at 36% i can barely hear it with the side off and most the fans right off :)
Its why noise is subjective to everyone ,and its not just the loudness pitch etc bother different people
Eg corsair SP120's above 60% i cant stand :(
