VTX3D Radeon HD 6850 X-Edition Graphics Card Review
Andy Ruffell / 13 years ago
Noise is generally the bain of most consumers lives and in the hope of finding the quietest operation, we feel it’s necessary to show you the audio level of components. We use the same components throughout this test and use a sound level meter to record the audio level of the system with a passive graphics card installed. Once we have the level recorded with the passive card, we continue to change the graphics card for the one that we are testing. Due to us having the audio level recorded before installation, it gives us a guide to work with and shows that anything over our initial level is an audio gain.
The cooler isn’t anything too special, but it does a good job of remaining quiet, even when testing in the most intense applications.
