Strix Gaming Graphics Cards - 0dB Fan Technology

[Crappy Me]

Hey guys

 

I came over this video on youtube. I'll link it below

I would like you guys to watch the video and tell me what you think. 

I think this is a great idea. Even if it is not the "best" option, i thought it were a great idea.

It is certantly the graphicscard that ruin my movie experience

I would love that on my card, only I can't find a custom BIOS for it to make it work

[Phllips]

Im more interested in the looks. Dam there sexy

Nvidia should rolll this out in a driver update. Would have much more respect to these money hungry companies then if its not patented by asus. Also I still will have respect for nvidia and stuff regardless for the awesome products and innovation.

cant you set a custom GPU fan graph that does this already?

[Rheinwasser]

my first thought when i heard of this, this will probably be pretty annoying if the fan ramps up and down all the time, but then i heard its from asus, and i swear the will implement in an intelligent way.

but modern graphics arent very loud in idle anyways, so meh.. but as always, its not a major improvement, but it drives the industry.

just turn up your volume!

Strix 750ti coming soon....

[Rorgash]

hmm, would be nice, but even now my gpu is at 31% fan speed which is silent...

Heavy breathing...

This feature will be on the mainstream 800 series cards 100%

I think you can, like manually setting fan speeds (percentage) and temperature via Precision.

But when they release more details we will see what makes this 0dba shenanigans special from manuallly setting the fan speeds to zero until a certain temp.

Sometimes turning up volume is not an option. It is not certain you have the opportunity in every situation, like if you are watching a movie late at night (kids sleeping) or anything like that. 

I Think it is good that they improve in all aspects when it comes to sound reduction. As long as it is an improvement I'll say go for it. Not a breakthrough, but it is still awesome to see that they try to improve

I like the idea. But as mentioned, some coolers tend to make a lot of noise when the fans change speeds.

Linus also covered this in a video. He said that; "the sound of the card is not a that big of an issue, if the sound is constant. But if the sound changes thats what we perceive the most, and thats what we find the most annoying." 

I tend to agree in that statement.

Not at all. I've tried modding the bios, the fan just doesn't go lower lets say if the min is 26%. You can use kepler bios tweaker and change the minimum fan speed to 0% and it won't do anything.

What did he mean with that? This card's min speed is 300 rpm. Most 780's are 1000.

I would trade my 780ti direct cuii for this
