Well it IS $30 more...

I know its a smaller form factor, is one fan enough to keep it adequately cool?

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2060-6GB-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1660-Ti/4034vs4037

Is the difference WORTH $30, will my EYES notice it or will just a bench test notice it?

Thanks!

I think you can get a 500GB SSD for almost the same price as the SSD you selected. $70 for a decent NVMe 500GB even.

LOL it sold out already, knew it would. It was $289 after the discounts when I linked to it. And yes, that single fan model is more than adequately cooled https://hothardware.com/reviews/evga-geforce-rtx-2060-xc-review It is higher in the product stack, has a superior feature set, and if you do not pay tax from Newegg, was a MUCH better deal than the 1660ti. As demonstrated by how fast stock got snatched up. But water under the bridge now. You are right that you will still be happy enough with the performance though. Game on!
