    As much as I love the look of the Antec 900, I'd feel much happier with that (CM-690), knowing it would fit the GFX better. And it's got tool-less mounts, which the 900 didn't have.

    I would personally buy an artic cooling accelro for it and strap a quiet 120mm fan to that. brings temps down to 40's and makes as much noise as you specify with the fan. A driver update may fix the stock cooler though.
    Second this, 4850 is your best option but also buy the below cooler

    Moves heat out of the case... Bargain
