Hey, I'm looking for a graphics card that can run COD WWII, FORTNITE, and other games in 60fps.

MY SPECS: i7-4790 CPU 3.60GHz
8GB RAM
64 BIT
AMD RADEON R9 270

I prefer Nvidia Graphics card :)

That case has a GPU clearance of...

Height: 4.736 inches
Length: 9.5 inches
Width: Dual Slot

There are standard size 1060s that are short enough, but most are around 4.75" depth.

Thus you should probably get one of the mini versions. They only have one fan, but will easily fit. Prices are terrible right now on pretty much any GPU that can be used for current games though, due to cryptocurrency miners buying them all.

You know, this is all pretty easy stuff to find just using Google. I suggest you put in a bit of effort yourself.

I'd go with a GTX 1060 6GB. It's recommended spec for CoD WWII. It won't get you max settings, but Extra graphics settings on CoD WWII last time I tried it even on a 1080 Ti would not work due to a bug in the game anyway. What I mean by that is it will play on Extra, but crash due to what appears to be a VRAM memory leak. I never got it to run more than 1 or 2 minutes at a time, so you'd be lucky to get 1 min out of a 6GB VRAM 1060. If the game won't even stay running on a GPU with 11GB VRAM, it obviously wasn't play tested well.
