Would purchasing one of these (lowering the temps) allow me more wiggle room on my overclocking? Temps haven't gone near 100 but would a colder GPU mean a GPU that artifacts less at a given clock speed?

You sure that thing is stable. I mean I think stability testers are complete non-sense. But have you tryed a few differant games and tests. Differant things stress the card differantly.

My temps never surpass 80 degrees in furmark and never top 70 in most games. Farcry 2 stable, TF2 stable, L4D stable.
