Best VGA cooler?

[Cloudium]

The brands that are available to me are:
Akasa
Arctic Cooling
Cooler Master
NorthQ
Thermalright
Thermaltake
Zalman
Zerotherm

I want a cooler that is more efficient and more silent than the GTs stock cooler. Price isn't that big of an issue, as long as it's not ridiculously high.

Arctic Cooling S1, people on spcr are getting sub 60 degree load temps with seriously undervolted 12cm fans down to 600-800RPM. One guy actually says he has 46 degree load temp.

the zalm zf1000 and thermalright DuOrb will easily get sub 60C temps.

I'm currently at 735/1825/950 using a DuOrb and I load at 55C. The zf1000 hits loads around 50C.

The S1 is a beast, so if you want something a little more discreet and light try the zf1000 or the DuOrb.

*note: the DuOrb is NOT whisper quiet. To make it whisper quiet I had to get a 4pin to 3pin converter so I could plug it into my motherboard. Then using speedfan you can reduce the fan speed and significantly reduce noise. The above temp was achieved using the slowed down quiet fan.

my stock temps at stock speeds 650/1625/950 were 60C idle /105C load.

I also had 45c load temps on my 8800gt, it had a slim 80mm fan and a 120mm fan bolted to it. Case temps went up around 5c.
