PNY GTX 980 Identification

[Danksauce]

So I have recently acquired a custom pc that I was trying to utilize for some parts. I am stuck on the (top water-cooled) GPU and wanted to reach out online to see if anyone could point me to which card this actually is. The model number reads GMGTX98N3H4GM-KTM and states that it is a PNY GTX 980. Searching online yields two PNY GTX 980 cards with different model numbers than what I see listed.

I know that it has an aftermarket water cooler but would like to know what the original card’s cooling and heat sink looked like so I could convert it back to air-cooled to fit in my machine which is air-cooled. Below are some pictures for reference and thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I believe it is a gtx 980. under the circumstance, the cooler would be a long silver shroud with a single fan at the end of it. it would be a reference cooler, because PNY makes NVidia reference cards, but you can also download GPU-Z from techpowerup and check the GPU specifically.

I was stuck on why the model numbers do not match up between the ones listed online and the backplate on the card i have, still kinda stumped by it.

Hit could be just the backplate. Anyways do check some kind of hardware monitor what both cards are. It could have been from a different card
