Alright Guys here is the Deal:

I decided on getting a GTX 1060 for my 60hz 1080p System but i simply can't decide which one i should get...

Here Are the 2 possible choises:

 

  1. Palit GTX 1060 Dual: basic custom Design, two Fans, no backplate, starting at 280€
  2. Inno3D GeForce GTX 1060 iChill X3, OCed, Backplate, three Coolers, starting at 310€

I would love to have a backplate but i could also get an extra 8gb Ram Stick for the price difference

Also the gtx 1060 doesnt seem to get very hot in the first place so will the Performance even be affected by better cooling? 

 

Hope you guys can help me with the decision :)
