Upgrading to RTX 2070, kindly advice on which card could fit in with no modding

(I prefer to have Zotac RTX 2070 though i don't know if it will fit)

Advise needed here !

Solved the loud noise on the RTX 2070 gigabyte by changing the fan to Noctua A15x14

Had to do some fabrications on the fan to fit on perfectly

Thermals are higher by 1-2 degrees Celsius but its worth the difference in noise, I also keep the fan now all the time at 100%

After switching the stock fan to the Noctua A15x14, I solved the acoustic problem but while gaming the gpu reaches very high temps 85 degrees Celsius.

I am considering reapplying thermal paste, it seems like my last resort
