Anyone tried any sort of passive cooling on a 270x?
Looking at the Accellero S1 Plus perhaps...
 
Got a pair of the Asus 270x but to get them both in the same case (mATX) I'd have to go liquid or passive...
 
Mining, they are currently in two separate rigs.
I want something that'll drop temps and noise, had a similar accelero unit on my old GTX670...
 
You may be OK with a Alpenföhn Peter 2 or a Prolimatech MK-26 or some other huge passive heatsink if you have good case airflow.
 
If you go the accelero route you can strap some decent non-pwm, ( preferably FDB if motor noise bothers you) fans and run them at ~800rpm. You won't hear them and they will run significantly cooler than passive.

I've got one of the twin turbo cooler module things in a spares box somewhere so that'd do the job...
