true, cards with 2 or 3 fans are cooler than models with single fan. Then again i still have some r9 290 cards that are working on higher temperatures, but that single fan never stopped and never needed repair. Cards with stock cooler are much more stable, although they are way louder. If you are making a rig that wont be in your room or house, then cards with 1 fan are ok. If you plan on having a machine in your room, definitly look for cards with 2 or 3 fans
