I seriously just took the fan off my evga 1060 and slapped a noctua 92mm fan on the side. Temps improved immensely and now its dead quiet. It even plugged in directly to the gpu. No warranty is voided if you remove the cover properly and put it back on if you need to send it back in.

I have fixed my problems with the fans and the machine runs both silently and even more quietly. I ordered a Noctua fan controller (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B072M2HKSN/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1) and a spare Noctua 92mm (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RUZ059O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1).

Both of the controllers come with a cable that undervolt the fan it is connected to (called a low noise adapter). I removed the stock 92mm fan (which was facing me because of the way my setup works. You might be able to get away with not doing this, but then you'll be out an extra low noise adapter wire, which will limit the amount of sound dissipation you'll get out of it). I installed my Noctua 92mm in it's place. Then I moved the stock fan to the front.

The fan controller comes with a cord that connects to the motherboard and a sata power connector. It receives it's instructions from the motherboard and then powers all the fans connected to it proportional to how fast you set it at. E.g. if the motherboard is saying fan speed 100%, and you have it set to 80%, all the fans will move at 80%. It draws extra power from the sata cable so that it won't draw too much power from the motherboard. I ran those two cables through the bottom PCI slot and then attached the controller to the bottom of the outside of the case. I did have to use the extension cable to get it out of the case. (This is also included in the package).

I then ran the 3 way Y Splitter into the case. I attached the Noctua 92mm directly to the splitter and the low noise adapter wire to the stock fan, which is now located in the front. Basically this means that the Noctua fan (in the rear) runs around 50% speed and the front one probably close to 30% speed.

I then attached the CPU fan to the second low noise adapter.

After making these changes my temps dropped 1C to 37C from 38C and the machine went from sounding like a jet engine taking off to being basically silent.

YMMV, and you will have to go through the annoying BIOS error every time you boot (I have to hit escape when it's running the rear fan test) so it probably voids your warranty in some respect so I'd advise against this if you don't know what you're doing but it seems to work on mine.

Yeah im sure. If you have a sfx power supply and nothing unusual in the corner on your motherboard it will fit. Snug, pretty perfect fit, I feel like they should advertise it.

Here is the exact fan I have:

Do you have a single or two fan GPU? My single fan GTX 1060 never gets above 70°C. I have this fan on the bottom with a dust filter, for intake to cool the GPU. And I'm using the NH-D9L for the CPU, with a NF-A9 fan on the back of the case directly behind the CPU cooler, pushing air out the back.

It looks as if any fan will screw on to that cooler. Measure the fan and determine if it's 80 or 92mm.

If it's 80mm (which is what it looks like), get this.

If it's 92mm, get this.

Looking at exactly the same combo with the ncase m1 - ordered the 2080 Ti, waiting for the 9900k + a mini-itx board now, but looking at going the aircooling route, most likely a noctua U9S with NF-A9s. Not planning to overclock as mostly going to be used for gaming. Hoping to get an opinion on whether an Accelero will help further lower temps, or better to stick with stock?
