honestly all are about the same, the difference is mostly just the brand and cooling solutions (which are all about the same anyway with a huge heatsink and 2 fans). just dont get the 3gb versions, those have less compute units than the 6gb version, and hence will perform slightly worse.

for mid tier gpus like the 1060, going for the cheapest one usually does the job for most people.

That used to be a past advice. But current GTX 1060 6GB price is not great and rather close to GTX 1660 6GB offering better performance for the topup. (Closer to GTX 1660 than GTX 1060 3GB)

These days i wont bother selecting more expensive non-reference designs as they are hitting near next higher tier card price.
