N Case m1 - big gpu or gpu + fans

[Fade]

Hey guys,

Planning out my build for when my v6 comes in, have not been able to find much info on this. Do you believe its better to get a GPU with a larger GPU cooler that or get something closer to a standard 2 slot card and throw fans under it also.

Looking at 2070 supers, also performance is important but noise levels are more so. Leaning towards a larder cooler.

3 or 2.5 slots, remove fan bracket, add 2 120x25mm fans?

My favorite option for the M1: get the 2070S of the AIB you trust the most and replace the cooler with the Accelero III with 2x120mm exhaust fans. Otherwise, I'd go with a 3 or 2.5 slot card. I don't think the 2 slot card + fans is a good solution in terms of cost, noise, and effectiveness.
