The Japanese group Sycom has put out its new "Silent Master" line. They put GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5070, and RTX 5060 models with Noctua's top fans. Their plan is to give strong graphics with much less noise.
This line uses a plain look to hold Noctua fans, not like some other pairs. Key parts are:
- Cooling: A two-fan set up with Noctua fans.
- Build: All-metal top, a heatsink with three 6mm copper pipes, and a metal back.
- Quiet Work: Zero noise fan use when not busy.
Sycom's own tests show these cards make noise from 34.9 to 35.9 decibels when busy and 31.4 decibels when still. This is less noise than the basic card, which makes about 46-47 dB(A) when busy.
For heat, Sycom's tests show these top and mean heat marks:
- RTX 5060 Ti Silent Master: Tops at 79.1°C (mean 76.2°C).
- RTX 5070 Silent Master: Tops at 81.8°C (mean 77.4°C).
- RTX 5070 Ti Silent Master: Tops at 81.6°C (mean 76.5°C).
All will stick to NVIDIA's set clock speeds. The fans set and size are:
GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Silent Master:
- 2.5-slot look.
- Two Noctua NF-A9x14 PWM fans (peak 2200 RPM).
- Size: 250x120x44mm.
GeForce RTX 5070 Silent Master:
- 3.5-slot look.
- Two Noctua NF-A12x25 LS-PWM fans (peak 1200 RPM).
- Size: 315x145x66mm.
GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Silent Master:
- 3.8-slot look.
- Two Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans (peak 2200 RPM).
- Size: 315x145x66mm.
The Sycom Silent Master series cards will mostly sell through OEMs and team builders for use in pre-wired PCs. No set price for the cards alone, but PCs with these quiet GPUs might cost a bit more. Sycom shows some of its own pre-wired setups with these cards on its site (Link Above).
