I know that there won't be much difference between them, but does anyone have any recommendations?

1. Palit Own Design GTX 1060
2. MSI GTX 1060 3GT OC
3. Gigabyte GTX 1060 Windforce OC

Note: The Gigabyte GTX 1060 Windforce is 25 euros cheaper than the other two which are priced the same. All are 3GB.

Go for the gigabyte as its the cheaper option you wont see much difference in performance between the 3 cards. Else if you don't mind spending the extra 25euro go for whichever you like the look of the most.

If you were choosing between the 3gb and 6gb version though. Go for the 6gb. If you can afford to stretch to a 6gb version go for that instead IMO

Well first of all let me say that, I own both the 3gb and 6gb Gigabyte variant of this card. If it is possible, bump up to the 6gb as there is quite a big performance bump and also you are future proofing your setup.

Ok could you send the dimensions of your case. And also I have experienced all three brands on my old card (r7 240 I think I can't remember exactly). And the MSI just out performed the gigabyte with the palit being slightly further behind. And since the Gigabyte is almost €30 cheaper and not much of a performance downgrade, I really recommend going for the Gigabyte.

Also send your full system specs

The 6GB version would be better, but it'll cost me 100 euro more to get it, and I honestly don't think spending 50% more for a 5/10% performance increase is worth it..
