"On par" is a broad term but I would say that being on par with something that does a sub par job is not really the right target to shoot for. I will say, begrudgingly, that reference to reference AMD and Nvidia are equally shit at their jobs. But I'm glad that they are because the non reference cards compete so heavily we end up with some GNARLY shit!
Good luck with your build mate!

You do not need an after market cooler. The vapor-x is probably the best cooler you will find for air cooling.
The statement that non-reference AMD cards run hotter is untrue. All you need to do is look at benchmarks and reviews to see this. AMD and Nvidia non-reference cards are on par with each other as far as temps and noise.
