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.

Those thermal results look even better too when we consider noise levels. The two fans only spun up to 32%, or 1100rpm during our testing, resulting in absolutely whisper quiet noise levels. The card is so quiet my sound meter couldn’t actually detect a difference in the environment with the fans on or off, as 32dBa is about the sound floor in my office, so that’s again a huge positive for the Dual.
