Although, with how cool the cards run now(600/700 series) on the stock coolers, I really don't see the need for it. Both my 670 FTWs run in the 47-49C range with a pretty decent overclock @about 75-80% load. Games like Crysis 2/3 and Metro LL will raise them up to the high 50's but that's as hot as I've seen them get. Using a slightly mod'ed fan curve set to auto. I owe a lot to Antec for building such great cooling solutions.
