Meh, u`d be supprized, it`s one of those things where u need to take a first leap into it. Hard to say to find a system u don`t care about and try it on that, perhaps with a crappy case so u can try stuff.
But in all honesty, there`s some great guides and advice to help u along with it right on OC3D. The main hardware-nuts here are mostly watercoolers by nature even if they`re not using it atm.
Guyz @ SpecialTech/WaterCoolingUK, and again members of OC3D, will even walk u through buying the gear and making sure u got what u need.
I ve got exactly the same model and now its wc'ed I am happy enough to really push it overclocking. It really does pick up a lot from its stock levels.

Thing is that card can pretty much reach its upper limit without watercooling if ya set the fan to 100%.. Only thing that stopped me going higher was the card itself rather than the temps.
