Question Anyone actually do a measured comparison of 4090 video cards for noise level?

[boed]

I know the strix often is one of the better cards previously but I'm curious if someone has done a comparison for the 4090 models. I get a kick out of people saying my blahblah card doesn't make any noise. I think they could have a marching band go through their living room and not notice.

There are some comparisons in the TPU reviews, like this one.

TPU does provide noise normalized results which is probably overall the most useful. If you want the absolute lowest noise, its a bit more of a crapshoot because TPU’s data on minimum fan speeds seems to be completely wrong. I have used several of the 4090 models and the graphs they’ve posted on fan RPM/vs fan % seems to be completely different than the retail BIOSs of any of the cards I’ve used.

For example on some models they’ll claim 30% (minimum fan speed) is 1100rpm, but I get closer to 800-850rpm on some of the 4090 models at that fan setting.
