39 decibels. 39. Thirty. Nine. Nine, with a three in front of it.
Also, thanks a bunch for including 1440p results. I suppose that's a given at this performance tier, but it's very helpful to me, and many others, I'm sure.
With Freesync, I'd accept slightly lower frame rates acceptable for a quieter and less-power-hungry build. Of course if you're looking you want to be paying more and burning more power - or perhaps just turning detail down, which would probably also help with any memory issues.
My guess would be no, because the key issue appears to be bandwidth between the GPU and its memory, on the card itself - but I agree, it'd be interesting to know. Perhaps more for some compute?

I must admit that I am a little bit surprised. End up being as good as the 5700 XT.eek2121 - Tuesday, January 21, 2020 - link
GTA V remains a persistent thorn in AMD's side (on Windows at least).That being said, if AMD had positioned this card at $250/year, it would have been quite a steal.

What are you trying to say with 39?philosofool - Tuesday, January 21, 2020 - link
I could have been cleared: it's 27% quieter than a 2060 and over 50% quieter than a 1660 Ti. That's awesome.Yojimbo - Monday, January 27, 2020 - link
Than which 2060 and 1660Ti, though? The one you would otherwise buy if you were interested in a quiet card?GreenReaper - Tuesday, January 21, 2020 - link

would testing on a pcie4 enabled board make any odds? just curious the card is pcie4 and it would be nice to see testing done with the latest specs.GreenReaper - Tuesday, January 21, 2020 - link

Overall test results are skewed by A massive 2060 win in GTA V. 5600XT was faster in most games.
