I'm currently using Sapphire's R9280X 3gb and so far I'm very happy with it.

I'm wondering though if anyone has any experience tinkering with both the fans, and/or clock settings. Reason being I'm very paranoid and cautious with this one. If it breaks or if I mess it up, I won't be seeing a replacement for a while. And when a game like ARMA3 or even Sniper Elite V2 starts putting a load on it, the fans sound like a jet engine about to take off.

So any tips on OC profiles as well as best settings for the fans?

I do have Sapphire's TriXX utility installed.
