I got one of these ^ for my GTX 650 ti and I am all but disappointed, it's quiet as a mouse and my gpu never gets above 60c and I have my card overclocked to about 35% above stock settings, stable.

There are also these ones for specific cards

and this one has broad compatibility

on arctic's website they have lists of what their coolers are compatible with. I know I may sound like a salesmen who works for arctic or something but I gotta say, I'm really impressed with my accelero mono plus.

All the fans I have are Fractal Design R2 quiet series fans connected with voltage reducing cables for more quiet operation and I also have a Zalman aftermarket CPU cooler. My rig stays almost as cool as my buddy's liquid cooled rig and is barely louder. I'm just so impressed I had to say something on the OC thread.

Nice but how noisy are they?

The case fans? 18.5 dBA at full load with 66 CFM, at least that's the 120mm one, they make like every size of case fan.
