yes but the thing is how much room will the VF900 take-up? will it work for 2 cards? ><

I admit the 7900GT stock cooler is a wuss.... but it seems it does the job.

yes its loud but you cant hear it over a case fan.

Personally i prefer Arctic Cooling, as it blows air out of your case.

I'm not sure if the NV Silencer 5 (Rev. 3) will fit 7900s though.
And space is an issue aswell, if you dont have at least one slot between your cards it could be a problem.
but you have 2 slots in between now that i look at the mobo so it should be fine.

As another person pointed out:
with aftermarket cooling, i see no reason not to overclock unless you're happy with the performance and see no need.

Im with you with the Arctic Cooling my man and I think it is better than the one from Zalman. Why? Because it exhaust the hot air out the back of the case and out, unlike Zalman that it just recycles it back inside the case. But either way both VGA coolers are the best you can buy. One thing is that this coolers are huge and needs two more slots below it so make sure you take up the dimensions. Also use Artic Silver 5 thermal paste for better cooling.
