Enjoy the silence, who doesn't remember that song from the 80'ties. Join us as we evaluate a GeForce RTX 3070 Noctua OC variant, which has been introduced onto the market recently. You can argue its looks and design, but the card does deliver as expected, it's very silent.

I would so buy aftermarket cooler for gpu if they did
IF there was no shortage and MSRP was not jacked up and there was xx70 verison that also didnt have super hihgh wattage usage too I would buy this.
Back in the day I went out my way to buy GPU made my manufactures that used AC aftermarket GPU coolers on there GPU cause i didnt want to have to install it my self, that was to few and between and half the when it was done GPU it self had other quality control issue like ridiculously amounts of coil whine .
The loudest thing in my PC is still to this date the GPU fan
be nice if they made full aftermarket coolers for gpus like this tbh. I'd buy one.

I have heard a lot of people say that but I suspect this was the max amount of heat and still be able to to make a card that is near dead silent. If there was not such a shortage this would be a great card for people who need/want a near silent PC.

The loudest thing is my GPU fans as well. I just replaced the thermal pads and thermal paste on my EVGA 1070. I might do a fan mod since it looks like she is going to have to last me a bit longer.

I really try NOT to repaste my cpu and or gpu, unless i have too These i not fan of tearing thing down unless need be.
So far Hellblade seem to be only game I have that really get my gpu temps up there and going. and push my gpu fan to about 1.7k~2k rpm, most the game i play are still rather old and dont even max my gpu usage to 99% to get 60 fps

Yeah same but my 1070 started running hotter and hotter over the last 6 months. It is 5 years old since I got it the first week they came out. Its running a little over 10c cooler now but that is with new thermal pads too.

May i suggest 2x Lian-Li GB-001 to battle the weight, and sandwich the card in between, it's not going anywhere then.
I secured my deshrouded 1070 with Noctua fans the same way, it's rock solid and looks very minimalistic.
