Ok so I'm planning to build a pc. The list of pc parts is here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6PFnJV

 

Ok, so about 3 months ago, I bought the power supply (rm750x) and a Asus Gtx 1060 3GB OC, on sale. [115$ and 250$] I was originally planning to build a white build, but I changed my mind. So since I bought it on sale I can sell it for higher and buy a new gpu. I will of course have to put out some more money though. So my problem is, I dont know what gpu I want to get. So in the build it says the EVGA 1060 3GB FTW, but I am also considering other gpus. Theres a ASUS RX 480 8GB ROG Strix for 300$, but the thing is, its really big. Im also considering the ASUS RX 570 4GB ROG Strix [290$]. Personally I really like the ASUS ROG Strix card with 3 fans, but I think it would look too big in my case, also I dont think it looks good when a gpu sags, but in the other hand it performs a bit better. Mainly I am concerned about how it looks though. Any of the cards perform well enough for me, and its not like its a huge difference between any of them. I like the Asus cards because they have RGB, but the EVGA would look so good together with my white led ram, also I think the EVGA card looks kind of classy. Im looking more for what you think would look better and maybe some suggestions on my build, than what performs better. 

Im also adding a poll, but I'm not sure if it will work, as it hasn't worked for me before.

Well you're basically asking what looks best, not looks best in your case.

We don't know your other specs, what case you have, what colors you're going for or anything like that.

 

So we can basically just answer which GPU looks best overall.
You mentioned white RAM and that ou changed your mind FROM a white build.. That's it.

You should include a picture of your case in a post so it is easier for everyone to vote on the poll.

Get Windows from kinguin for 20-30$, there is a huge bump in specs.

1) I don't want a Atx build, its too big 2) These arent the prices in my country- It would be maybe 400$ more and also i need to purchase all of the hardware in local/stores in my country and not amazon. 3) a few of these parts arent being sold anymore, also I already have a power supply. 

I appreciate you trying to help :) but if i wanted best performance for my dollar i would have gone for atx , and some where in the line of what you mentioned. But i dont need 1080 or 1070 since i have a 1080p monitor that im happy with. Also, i want to have a small form factor pc that looks good. A 1060/580 or what ever gpu i go for  , is enough for me, since im going to playing in 1080p, also i want premium parts that last long and not buy the cheapest available. I really care about how the pc looks, and i look at pc building more of a hobby than a pc for gaming. I would be happier with a pc that looks good than play the same games with higher quality and performance ( as long as its over 60fps on high, which 1060 will do, im happy)

-Again thank you for trying to help
