Water cooling is the way to go unless you want to listen to loud fan noise at least on mine when i went over 40% on the fan it got loud. Take it up to 100% and you will need ear plugs
Well seems to be a problem with the RE, since my friends don't have this issue and such temps @ idle.
I went kinda crazy with this cards because I thought they do not work well on the RE since the fan of the primary card started like every 2-5seconds and it sounds like a plane starts. I know that they like it hot...but didn't thought that they get that hot @ idle.

So...gonna get 2 of em again and some waterblocks for em.
Btw how are ur watercooled temps?
