The noise actually bothers you? I have a Titan X stupidly overclocked on air that thing is a jet engine and I don't mind since of headset :P

 

The best way around this would buy a waterblock since it is FE you should be able to mount it fairly easy following tutorials that would decrease noise by a lot but add the hassle of water cooling, I would strongly advise you not to sell the card or anything you would pretty much be losing money that way as potentials buyers for the 1080 will only offer low since the 1080ti Titan Xp are out and VEGA coming soon.
