    Hi guys , I currently run 3 monitors using a EVGA GTX 950 2GB GPU and I was wondering what I should be looking at to upgrade the graphics without increasing the fan noise if possible ? I'd welcome any suggestions for the nvidia platform. Thanks

    Edit: Any opinions or comments on this card ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07PDT2H55/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_wYB1DbFSS9M6V

    What are the rest of your setup specs? Also how much are you looking to spend on a new card?

    That model of GTX 1660 is fine - runs semi-passively (0 rpm fans while not gaming).

    Best card you can get right now, however I'd hold until Black Friday sales come in - you might be able to snag a better 1660 Super or 1660 Ti for €250.
