We'd like to debunk some myths about the GeForce GTX noise levels. Some sites report DBa levels of 60-70 -- which is not right. The card definitely is noisy, but surely not that bad. This video shows the DBa levels measured under load at 75cm distance from the closed PC.

  • "Some sites report DBa levels of 60-70 -- which is not right."

    This all depends on how it is measured. Sound tests sould only be used to compare the cards noise levels, rather than giving absolute measurements. The reviews that recorded high noise levels did so across all cards, with the 480 coming out ahead of the 5970 and 5870, which is accurate.

  • this card gets so hot =S =S =S

see all

  • with my thermalright spitfire my 480gtx only goes to 66c @ 100% load at less than 20dba!

  • @TomekSenpai goddamn fanboy faggots fighting over fucking videocards, get a fucking life you inbred retard

  • According to Guru3D it's a touch quieter than my Galaxy 9800GTX+... so i'm not going to complain TOO much

  • lol my 5870 on full load with 44%fan does not go upper than 64C,and this one is near 90 at 55%

  • hahahah its same noise like my vacuum cleaner :) these card is sux ,is loud and the temperature 70 celcius in idle hahahahaha asus radeon HD5970 ares rox

  • @gor1l1a Most people when playing games play with a closed chassis. So that's why he did it like that, because if you leave the case open there will be more noise.

  • Er, that's not noisy to you? I didn't buy a nice sound card to have it drowned out by a leaf blower next to me. How can I get immersed in a game with the fan blasting away like that?

  • Guru3d stop the pro Nvidia Propaganda its clear that you have been bought by POV/Nvidia..

  • too fuckin hot just wait for the new duel gpu there coming out soon then you will see how hot they are
