Only reason I mentioned this is because I ran a single 5870 @ 1000/1250 with heavy volts crunching
[email protected] 24/7 last fall on a black ice 120GTX push only and it kept it around 32C.
My current setup I have 2 5870s in CF on the same 120 mm rad, but now with push/pull config. Under 24/7 load, the top card gets up to about 56C and the bottom card is around 46C. Defintiely would like it to be cooler, but still, 56C at that load is wonderful compared to 80-90C on stock cooling
Also, I know the 470s run a bit hot, but still, I really think a thick 120 will do great for you and take up less space
