Next GTX 980 with aftermarket cooler

[Farapon]

Hi, que question is simple, i tryed to google that but didn't work.

¿What are the next GTX 980s with aftermarket cooling and when are they going to come out?

¿When do you think that there is going to be a price drop of the 980? Here in Spain they cost 559-589 Euros which is unaccepteable expensive. (maybe october?) like 50 euros...

Thank you.

1. A GTX980 runs on such low power that aftermarket cooling is not necessary.
The stock titan blower cooler is probably even better as a cooler in a case. It gets heat out directly and quicker.
If you want fancy coolers at an inflated price, they are available now.

2. The list price now is very competitive. Nvidia will not lower the wholesale price. What you might do is wait for the initial surge of orders to subside. Retailers will no longer be able to jack up the prices. Mid October might be right.

The GPUs aftermarket coolers have already come out for the following brands EVGA, ASUS, and Gigabyte. The price on them will not be going down any time soon except maybe during black friday even then it will be maybe a $50-$80 difference. Here are the links for the GPU's

If there are any other cards that have come out already I am simply unaware.
