I have the Sapphire Fury X, and it's fantastic. Consistently stays at or under 55C, never have to worry about heat at all which is great peace of find, just make sure you mount the radiator above the card.

Thanks for the tip.

I'm leaning towards a Fractal Define R5 as the case - shouldn't be a problem. I was a little worried about cooling options for both a flagship GPU and watercooling (maybe) the CPU. I guess I should see what folks in the wild are doing with Skylakes first. I'm not going to push the edge of overclocking, but just a modest bump over stock/turbo. The Noctua (Air) may be good enough for what I intend.

Just don't know yet. Waiting for an i7-6700k in stock notice from Newegg.
