Hi, I have an XFX 4870, and the fan noise is really starting to do my nut in! I was looking at the akasa vortexx to replace the stock cooler but one of the reviews posted says it doesnt quite fit on the XFX model and bits have to be trimmed, or bent or taped up and that's putting me off.

So does anybody have any other suggestions? Preferably options that are known to fit this particular model.

Many thanks

Edit: One that exhausts out the back of the case is important as well. Temperatures inside it aren't ideal at the minute.
