I don’t follow. The cooler designs on modern midrange and high end GPUs are way bigger and more elaborate than anything that has ever shipped on a $150 GPU.
There are also great coolers that come on stock cards, you just have to pick one that isn’t shitty. No temp issues with my EVGA or Gigabyte cards that have huge heatsinks and 3 big fans on them.
Blower style coolers on gpus can be quite good just depends on the card. I’ve had good blower cards and bad blower cards also in certain cases it may be beneficial to get a blower card over a normal card for temps alone as they stuck air up and blow it out towards the back
My GPU had a shitty blower cooler, switching to water-cooling made my system so much more quiet!
I don’t understand why they sell GPUs for up to $2000, and they still come with the same crappy fans we had on $150 cards.
Want watercooling? Have fun invalidating your warranty.

Did you consider this earth shattering idea of replacing shitty stock fans with actually good fans? Or mounting atop good fans?
