what kind of load temps are you getting with this setup? is it definately worth the money? id like to overclock my card to 680 speeds. also hows the noise compared to the reference cooler which seems to have a slight growl to it.

I've been running the 670 4 gb with the Antec 620 for about 2 weeks now. It is definitely worth it. The noise level compared to the reference cooler is night and day. Computer couldn't be quieter now. Main reason I wanted to do this mod is because of how loud the reference cooler was. No regrets, this is hands down the best mod I've ever done to my computer. You can't beat the price either. I highly recommend doing it. thumb.gif

how much is everything for this? I've been looking at the new Arctic Cooler Sleeve for my 670 because the ref cooler is so loud and doesn't do to well with my OC. I eventually will get throttles frown.gif

The new Arctic Cooler is $78. Is this setup cheaper?

Its cheaper if you wait for a sale on the pump. $40ish would be consitered a very good price on the pump. Dwoods bracket is very cheap too, hardly notice the cost really. You could also forgo the bracket and use zipstraps for even more cost savings.
