After several days of research, I have finally put in the order for my new graphics card to replace the 5770 I am selling.

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-071-GI

I chose this because not only has every review given it amazing reviews but they all have commented on how quiet this product is compared to the stock cooling on other cards such as my 5770 and as such, its ideal for me for the games I play at least.
 
I've got the regular overclocked version that Dervious linked and I can attest to it's quietness. The only time I ever hear it is when I boot up my PC, where the fans spin at maximum for about 1 second and even then it's not that loud.

I've played a bunch of games and the max temps I've seen it go is 62°C, it idles at 30°C.
 
Nice card. I was thinking about one of them or the 6850/6870.

In the end I went with the 6870 but you can't go wrong with either.

Nice cooler and that card too.
