We take our noise measurements with the sound meter positioned 1 foot from the graphics card. I measured the noise floor to be 32 dBA, thus anything above this level can be attributed to the graphics cards. The power supply is passive for the entire power output range we tested all graphics cards in, while all CPU and system fans were disabled. A reading under load comes from running Cyberpunk 2077 for 30 minutes.

Noise levels are not a problem either. My testing saw the two fans run at 54%, or 1650rpm, over our thirty minute stress test, resulting in noise levels hitting 36dBa. I did notice some coil whine during my testing, but typically only in the in-game menus – during actual gameplay this was not a problem, and we include a sound test in our video review.
