As you have 2 gtx 980, you can use that to mine Ethereum. You just need a computer with at least two PCIE slots. Your power supply should be powerful enough, say, at least 800W.

Ty for reply. Is it possible to calculate how many coin I can mine?

You can calculate the profitability here:

For the 980x, you can get about 25MH/s each, so put 50 there, you will get 2 Ethereum per day, or about $5.
