It's clocked higher than the reference card and it's cooler is very effective and very quiet. It eats games up at 1920x1080 and stays cool while you're playing, I've never seen above 61C on mine and that was while playing Far Cry 3. At idle it is all but silent and when it's pushed hard its still one of the quietest 7900 series cards out there.

The 7950 is the faster card clock for clock but it has a noisier reference cooler. The 7870 xt is a bit slower but has a none reference cooler which should be quieter. There is also this which uses the same gpu as the sapphire but a different cooler. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-013-VX&groupid=701&catid=56 . Also the links for your mobo and case don't work.
