Cooling helps your ability to overclock up to the point where the VPU is no longer overheating.  I usually make my own coolers from old Pentium sinks.

How would the Thermaltake Extreme Giant 3 work with a 9100 ?

If it fits it would work well but I don't think it is worth the expense.  Just strap on any sort of little heatsink you have laying around or just replace the little fan on it with a bigger one or something.  I used to just unscrew the little fans on my old vid cards and zip tie an 80mm fan onto it, lol.  It looked crazy but it worked good :)
