    well, if you find that your airflow just doesnt cut it you can always strap on some noctua ultra silent fans right?
    reminds me of an old thermalright cooler, the HR3 i think...

    Or just buy any decent normal 7850.

    Guess there is a lot of silent case fans out there that you could use to supplement this. Less options on graphics cards.

    I have to say that I have not been able to achieve satisfactory noise levels with my powercolor scs3 HD6850 - my case fan needs to be on quite high and even then I can only keep the card at around 90 degrees. Not ideal!
