4890 Cooling

I am planning on getting a 4890 but thought I would wait until the versions with non standard coolers came out, as I considered my previous reference HD2900XT too loud (has anyone heard anything new on when these are expected?). However I have just noticed that OcUK do not currently seem to stock many of the 4870 versions with the manufacturers "enhanced cooling" such as the HIS IceQ4+ or the Sapphire Toxic/VaporX. Is this because the extra cooling is not really worth the extra cost?

Would I be better off getting one of the current batch and getting a third party cooler at a later date? Are any of the current add on coolers compatible with the 4890, if not do we know when compatible coolers will be available?

Thanks
