Best non-reference designs on AMD's side

A one month wait is easy for me when I keep my GPUs for ~2 years. Next March will be 2 years on my 680, seems like I got it yesterday.

Was there ever an aftermarket blower style cooler available?

Not on the 7970, but there was the HIS ICE Q Turbo on the 7950's, 7870's and probably other lesser models.
