@OwlRamos,

I like the WindForce  twin fan model. Just be sure your PSU has an 8 pin plug for the PICE power.

@OwlRamos,

There are 2 considerations: (Both are recommended with a 500W PSU, which you have.

1) The GTX 1060 is 120W and 6 pin power plug. Nominal length can be 9.8"

2) RTX 2060 (random pick) is 160W and 8 pin power plug. Nominal length can vary from 7.5" to over 10.5".
