Shaggie76 just posted his latest graphs for best performing cards per watt in his thread. The GTX 1660Ti came out on top. Not enough entries yet to see where the GTX 1660 or GTX 1650 will fall.

Lots of good information on risers and cables in the Mining thread.

I have a 7 gpu box with gtx 1060 3GB's that is circulating just under 300,000 RAC so it seems reasonable that you could get to that neighborhood with anything from the gtx 1060's on up (assuming Linux/Tbar All in One).

Anything with 3GB and above and you'll be fine. ;-)

Cheers.
