If you're not overclocking, then more cooling is not necessary. The mounting mechanism on the back side of the card is really simple.

u could get it anyway and run stock speeds with the vga silencer on low fan mode its loads queiter, it comes with instructions how to install it and if ur going to oc id get some ramsinks to.

I suggest the VGA Silencer to everyone even if they're not going to OC, because of the lower sound levels, as mentioned already.
