GeForce GTX 670 Minimal aftermarket cooler for reference (Short) pcb

[BenRiedstra]

Hey guys,

I just finished a rebuild of my pc and am currently in a hitch. My whole system is nice and queit except for my extremely loud and annoying reference gtx 670 made by EVGA. There is a huge problem out there with this annoying buzz and I think its time I get rid of it.

I am looking for an aftermarket cooler that not only works at keeping the card cool but is also silent and retains some of the original style that the sleek reference design with held.

Here are my requirements:
*#1 Keeps the card quiet and cool
*Retains some of the style
*Is relatively cheap i.e Not a watercooling hybrid gold plated ac unit
*Remains small.

The last point is why I will not be purchasing the arctic cooling mono or dual coolers as they are just way too large and pretrude too far out from the card looking ridiculous.

There are a lot of older coolers like the scythe mushashi or products from deepcool and zalman which fit the bill except I am unsure to whether or not they will fit :/

Thanks for the help and I hope that I can get this sorted! Sorry for the long post

You are pretty much stuck, it would be cheaper to just sell the card and buy an MSI Gaming 760, soundless and the same performance as the 670.

I would rather not sell this card. I only got it about 5 months ago and I enjoy its performance aswell as I live in New Zealand which means that things are extremely overpriced so finding a new card with the money that I would get from the 670 isnt worth it.
