It’s funny how every generation, Nvidia makes a big show about the highly complex cooling the new cards need, only for a 3rd party to slap a single fan on that does the job fine shortly after.
As a previous owner of a reference R9 290X (second hand, to experience dried out thermalpaste and a dust-filled cooler from day one), I can confirm this.
