Hi

I’m planning to upgrade my RX 6600, i found a nice offer for RX 6750 XT Reference card (pictured), that’s apparently made by XTXXFX, it’s hard to find reviews for that specific variant, some customers reviews in item listings mention loud fans and coil whine but it’s not prevalent, can anyone confirm that? is fan noise an effect of default fan curves? is coil whine really that problematic? i mean i have trouble hearing anything in sample recording, I’m 40, so maybe it’s more noticeable for young people as higher frequencies often do?

UPDATE: got the card 2 weeks ago, just forgot to update, the coil buzz is definitely here, varies from game to game, the cooling issue is more problematic though, to the point i just lower the power limit or ingame settings to make it heat up less, but i think it’ll get better in Fractal Ridge in few months;-)

    I have that exact card and noise isn’t a problem. Maybe it is for the people who leave their PCs on top of their desk where their ears are closer?
