I've got an XFX 5770 1GB and looking to replace it with something of near or equal spec but less noise output (and prefably less heat too).

Reason being I use my computer as more of a media server/htpc rather than for gaming so 1. it'll be on all the time (heat and power), and 2. it'll be on when watching movies (noise).

I don't mind trading in my 5770 for a second hand alternative in the MM. My 5770 is apparently worty around £80. Budget maybe an additional £20-40.

Alternatively are there any decent aftermarket coolers worth considering?

Any recommendations?
