I have this bolted to my video card. If you have decent air circulation in your case (and probably if you don't), this works *better* than most stock video card cooling fans, and of course it's silent. Does take up a chunk of space, though.
The problem with that plan #1, is your GPU isn't the only part that needs cooled, having a fan on the heatsink pulls or pushes air past the power regulation stage which creates a non-trivial amount of heat itself, contributing to mosfet or capacity failure.
Ideally you would have both, a heatpiped 'sink then a large/thick fan either mounted on it, or on the side case panel blowing directly across the card.
Bit expensive though, to buy an aftermarket cooler instead of paying the $10 more a typical GPU-model of card costs to get it wearing a better stock heatsink.
