My advice would be to buy an Arctic VGA silencer for your GFX card. I have the same card as you and had a cooler that was on the top of the card, it was really loud and due to the design cooled very poorly. The fact i had a very small cheap case didn't help matters either. The temps were reaching 90oc after gaming for a few mins so i decided something had to be done.
Fitting the cooler was a breeze, it will be even easier for you as my cooler was on the bottom and the top of the card so i had to be very careful when sliding it off. Upon booting up i expected the GFX temps to be around 60 or 70 as i thought it would take a while to bed in. But i booted up and the temp was 36oc
, it did gradually rise to around 42oc idle and 60oc after gaming.
