Palit RTX 5090 GameRock Review

Following on from our stock thermal and acoustic testing, here we re-test the operating temperature of the GPU, but with noise levels normalised to 40dBa. This allows us to measure the efficiency of the overall cooling solution as varying noise levels as a result of more aggressive fan curves are no longer a factor.

Given the Performance BIOS already runs at 40dBa noise output, there's no need to adjust fan speed for our noise normalised testing. That does mean the GameRock isn't overly impressive, with the GPU running 1C hotter than the Founders Edition. Thankfully the VRAM is an improvement, dropping 4C compared to the FE – but MSI's Suprim SOC is far and away the better cooler.
