Just bought new noctua fans to quiet down my system, but GPU is still extremely loud

Go to solution Solved by OCNewbee,

You have three options and they are listed from the most effective to the least effective.

1) use afterburner to undervolt and underclock your card (potential 3~10C gain)

2) repaste GPU and replace the thermal pads with copper shims and thermal pasts *very dangerous tbh (potential 5~20C gain)

3) deshroud your GPU and replace the fans with noctua fans (if your GPU heatsink is two slots, it will not make much of a temp difference but noise will be more tolerable)

 

If you do all three well, then you can expect to see around 20C difference underload. At idle, it will be prolly be 3 degrees difference at most. 

I'm looking for a fix to make my GPU fans become more quiet, I'm willing to take a performance hit, for the quiet. I just cant really figure out a good fan curve or like what underclock to do. I linked below the tuning software, I have an rx 570 8gb. Any help is appreciated.

readjust the fan curve so it looks like a gradual climb, not like the steep drop off shown here.

It was originally a curve I have just been messing with it, i havent had a problem with it going from 0 to 100 ive had a problem with it basically staying 100

Still the curve is too steep... make it softer, gradually rising.

I have mine starting at 40c pretty much perfect for this card, also there's a slight delay,  really starts spinning at ~43c... i got a bunch of games where it doesn't spin at all (lots of ps3 games for example)

I undervolted it and it so much better now, thanks for the suggestion, just for all the people talking about the fan curve, it was originally a curve, I just was messing with it at the time of the screenshot, and I have already put it back to default.
