We take our noise measurements with the sound meter positioned 1 foot from the graphics card. I measured the noise floor to be 32 dBA, thus anything above this level can be attributed to the graphics cards. The power supply is passive for the entire power output range we tested all graphics cards in, while all CPU and system fans were disabled. A reading under load comes from running Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition for 30 minutes.

As for noise levels, the iChill X3 is a very quiet card. The three fans spun up to just 36%, or about 1180rpm, in our testing, producing 35dBa of noise, quieter than even the Gaming OC when using its Silent BIOS. There was also no audible coil whine during my testing.
