) at 0DB fans completely off. So this wasn't an option for me.
Gooood goood... less potential 4090 buyers.
I don't recall seeing any of the fans I have owned wobble like the videos I have seen of the FE 4090's.
Thank you for the pic! What case is this? I’ve a lancool 2 mesh with 176mm cpu clearance. Strix is 160mm not taking the adapter length into consideration. Would this be an issue? I could upgrade to a Fractal torrent with 188mm clearance. What do you suggest? Custom cable mods aren’t available in my countryso have to use the default adapter.
I suppose it depends on how you do it but I can't hear my pump at all - not over case fans for example. It's pretty easy to isolate the noise (or it has been for me). The voiding thing is always a fun debate but something I've lived with for years (although my current WB was prefitted for the first time due to availability) without issue (I've done RMAs). I'm really glad to hear (pun intended) yours is so quiet though. I've been WC for well over a decade, originally for noise reduction but also I realised how low temps with far more efficient cooling and this is especially true for GPUs (more so than CPUs for example). When asked about WC by friends I tell them not to do it - not unless you're prepared for the expense and complexity that comes with it.Watercooling FE means voiding warranty. Also, WC pump is audible, whereas strix spends much of it's time (even in some games
Strix looks fantastic in my case, love the full metal design of it, a big improvement on any breeze block I've seen
p600S has 190mm side clearance and more than enough room at the frontThank you for the pic! What case is this? I’ve a lancool 2 mesh with 176mm cpu clearance.

Without bending the adapter at all this is how much the soft part of the cable gets pushed by the glass side

I will find something, you just watchmany other AIb cards which cost hundreds less are just as quiet as the strix oc
I don't notice it on mine but my case is under the desk so would be hard to notice anyway I guess
with 3 of 4 pins you get 93% power limit but the cards so OP anyway it demolishes game even if you limit to 60% in afterburner

Love it tho me
The plus with the 4xxx series is that it seems nvids fumbles meant the AIB builders over specced the cooling versus the actual power draw on release so the air coolers are doing a good job indeed.
Which card have you got? My Suprim X arrived before but leaving it in the box for now as considering returning it. I think its probably going to be overkill for 3440 x 1440 @ 120Hz
Will mull over it this weekend.
