Some pretty amazing temps on these 670 FTW's. After re-working some of my cables/wires, I managed to shave 4c off my gpu's average.

Nice. It makes a difference just cleaning up cables. Doing all the other little things to get the temps down, is smart too.

Wish I had more room to move cables away xP But my mesh case vents heat just fine regardless of cable management :)

Stock 670 FTW cooler which is the reference 680 stuff. I use the Antec 300 case currently, great case. Almost all my fans are Coolermaster Sickelflow 2k rpm's, they do 69Cfm. I have 2 Antec Tri-cools that came with the case(top and rear fans). I have 1 x 140mm top, 1x120mm back, 1 x 120mm side, 2 x 120mm front, then I have 2x120mm on my aftercooler(push/pull). Here's what my 2500k temps got down to after cable maintenance, I run it at 5.0ghz pretty much 24-7.

Yeah I have all my fans running @2,000rpm or above. The Sickleflow's generate 19db and the Tri-cools are just slightly higher at like 23db, very quiet box.

Nice!! The only thing that ever gets loud is my GPU fan, but over game sounds it's not that bad. I have to store a whole bunch of PCIE power cables in the back panel of my case because my PSU came with some that are not detachable  . But, cable management has been a huge thing for me so the front looks great! I like to see people cleaning up their wiring. http://imgur.com/uu2thqQ

66-70C under 100% load@5ghz. If I go to 5.1 I hit 71-76C 100% load, that's as far as I've pushed it.
