Hi All,
I need advice on how to silence my brand new Palit GFX 1650 Super, (its driving me nuts!),
- Apply some software wizardry
- Replace with an aftermarket Artic Cooler
- Bite the bullet and get a new Palit GTX 1650 KalmX fanless.
I rarely play PC games now so I would be happy if I can still play far cry 3. The GFX main tasks will be excel spreadsheets and youtube.
In the anticipation of Covid19 lockdown I rushed out and bought two spanking new 27 inch AOC 4k monitors so I could work comfortably from home without having to squint at the tiny works laptop screen.
In addition, to make sure I could also connect my home pc to the two monitors I needed to replace my old fanless GFX that only had one video output.
The cheapest option my local store had that could output more than one HDMI/DP was a Palit GTX 1650 super. I purchased it and two days later we were in lockdown.
Within 24 hours of lockdown I realised that the model I had purchased does not have a full fan stop!
How can this be in 2020!!!!!?
Anyway, it constantly runs at a min of 30% fan speed and its driving me crazy!
My workstations might be 10 years old but I built them with silence as the top priority.
The workstation is housed a large & airy siverstone tower case.
Is there any firmware that I can apply to resolve this? (I used palits software and it said the gfx was running the latest palit firmware).
If not, should I buy an Arctic cooler "Accelero Xtreme III Rev. 2" at £50 or bite the bullet and buy a Palit GTX 1650 KalmX fanless?
I have a second workstation that would also benefit from a GFX upgrade so the initial palit 1650 super card would not necessarily go to waste.
Cheers in advance.
