Upgrading from laptop & eGPU setup, thoughts?

I'd like to upgrade from using a Dell XPS 15 7590 (i7-9750H) with eGPU setup (RTX 3060) as the laptop CPU is bottle-necking the GPU quite significantly.

I specifically had to make choices based on a longer-than-usual RTX 3060 that has 3 fans instead of 2 (https://www.scan.co.uk/products/msi...y-tracing-graphics-card-3584-core-1320mhz-gpu)
