As the title suggests, has anyone here got a Gigabyte 9000 series GPU, I want to buy my Mrs a cheap GPU upgrade, she has a Deepcool CH170 case which she loves and not willing to change, so I have a GPU limit of 305mm, I was looking at the Power colour hellbound 9060XT but for some strange reason its longer than the 9070 counter part and wouldnt fit, the reaper is a 2 fan card and she wants a 3 fan card (women are hard to please), so I had a look at the Gigabyte 9060XT, my only concern is the server grade gel they use and reports of it leaking out, anyone had experience of it happening to them ? I know I could RMA it if it happened, but its a ball ache and means the PC would be down for at least a week, and eventually get replaced with the same card which could do it again, plus any possible damage to the motherboard, its just easier to avoid it all together.
 
What about the XFX Swift 9060 XT Gaming OC Triple Fan 16GB which is 290mm in length.

There is also the Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT NITRO+ 16GB at 300mm in length.

Thnaks, I had a look at both of those cards, they are pretty much 3 slot as the fan shrouds are so chunky on them and take a slot up for themselves, I may just get her a 9070 reaper, bit more than she needs but it would at least fit, just about.

Her Case takes a 3 slot GPU (65mm) so your good if you want to save some money for beer ;)
