Hello,

I have a 'EVGA Hadron Air Mini-itx' case and need to buy a new gpu as the one I have (asus gtx 1060 6gb founders edition - blower style) has recent issues with the vram.

Now do I need to go with a blower style as with the case airflow is limited? Here in Sweden blower cards are uncommon and currently have only 2 on the market at my price range. These are;
Asus turbo rtx 2060 6gb
Sapphire radeon 5700 8gb

Thanks for reading,
James

    I love blower cards and recommend them. Blower cards have become uncommon due to favor towards the exhaust type. However, I have been told they run hotter and noisier than the exhaust type. They are great for airflow with limited space! Check out those that @Cool_GTX recommended from EVGA. Remember to check what EVGA B-Stock includes if it does not come with its original parts.

    From what I have heard the NVIDIA cards run cooler but it might be worth looking at reviews.
