Quietest 760?

Go to solution Solved by Lord Pantaloons,

I'm looking to pick up a 760, but am super concerned with noise, so i'm just curious if anyone knows which flavour of 760 would be the quietest?

Alternatively, should I go for another card at around the same price point that should be releasing soon? 

 

Thanks!

you should wait for the 960

watercooling is always the absolute quietest. id say the MSI one is very quiet

Twin Frozr or Windforce.

A slight mod would help either:

 

The Windforce has the advantage of having a flat heatsink that makes strapping an aftermarket fan onto it easier and more effective.

Watercooling isn't as quiet as just air cooling when aftermarket solutions are being brought to the table.

I think a lot of people will hate now, but we all know asus and evga make the best cooling solutions for gpus lately and all the others are also trying hard but not quiet on par with those two. .... imo ^^

If one does not fail at times, then one has not challenged himself.
