New Cooler for my GPU

Okay so I have had this issue for a long time and I am officially sick of it.

My GPU's stock cooler sounds comparable to a 290 reference cooler or worse and when it ramps up people in my skype call can hear it.

So I am willing to void my warranty to get some silence and better cooling performance, I will spend around $150 maybe a lil bit more depends on if it is worth it.

 

Thanks :)

I could use the thermaltake water 3.0 performer is that any good?

EDIT: Actually an MSY near me has the H55 which I could use

Something like the Arctic Accelero III or NZXT G10?
