Hello,
I am just configuring afterburner for my new GTX 780 classified. This is what I came up with since I care more about cooling then noise (my case fans are already loud af). Does this look reasonable?

Solution
Looks good but if the noise bothers you too much you can make it 100% by 75 or 80C. The GTX 780 won't start thermal throttling until around 85C.

On MSI afterburner the max temp is 80 degrees it says?
Technically it's 95C but you don't want it near that as it is very likely to get damaged.

80C or less is ideal for the 780. I had 2 in SLI and the top one would reach around 85C and I could see the clock speed start to go down which would indicate thermal throttling. MSI probably has it set for 80C to avoid damage and throttling.

Since I got this used probably better to leave at 80 max, thanks for your help!
