I'm planning to get a triple fan 12GB Nvidia 3060, but I'm uncertain if it will fit in my current case. What should I measure in my case to determine if the GPU will fit properly? Any tips on how to do this effectively?

It's also worthwhile to look up the specs for both the PC case and the GPU. The GPU clearance in your case specs will usually provide the information you need.
To find out if your GPU will fit, you can measure your case with a tape measure or ruler. Check the specifications for your case model online; it should list the maximum GPU dimensions that will fit inside.
For a more precise measurement, measure from the inside of the PCIe slots at the back of the case to the inside front of the case. This will give you the exact space available for the GPU. Make sure to account for any components that might stick out and get in the way!
Check your case manual as well; it typically includes the sizes of GPUs that can be accommodated. Measuring both the GPU and case dimensions will ensure you get the perfect fit.
The easiest way is to look up your case's specs; they often state the maximum GPU clearance. You'll want to compare that with the length of the 3060 model you're considering.
