Anyone replaced their 7900GTX fan?

For the first time, I have not replaced the stock GPU cooling setup. My 5950 Ultra has a Arctic Cooling NV Silencer and my 7800GT had a X1. Has anyone replaced the stock 7900GTX cooling assembly? Did the aftermarket setup cool any better than the stock system? I really like how quiet the stock setup is.

From what I have heard, the 7900GTX is one of the few cards, where the stock cooling is actually very well planned out, its not only quiet but does a very good job cooling. COnsidering its one of the few Stock solutions to use heatpipes this makes sense.

On the other hand, the 7900GT's cooling is whiney and not nearly as good as the GTX, and the X1900XT(X) cooling is a freakin wind turbine (they run like torches though, and even a VF900 struggles)

I dont really see a need to replace the stock cooling on it unless your going water, or want an extreme, extreme OC, and even then, your improvement over stock might not be that great.
