Totally no whine on idle, only under load. Like i said in other reply, on stable frame rate it can almost be like white noise due to constant noise, but when running LLM it makes a very distinctive rhythmic noise, and the noise pattern is different with every model and its VERY annoying.

When playing game with stable frame rate the whine is constant and can almost become white noise. But when running LLM though, the noise it make is exactly like what you described.

Fun fact, orange will most likely be male, female version will become calico. But yes he's precious, thank you!

it's not affecting me that much when i'm fully immersed in VR due to wearing headphones, but when i'm using it with local LLM for chats the noise can be unbearable. Not sure how undervolting can affect that particular use case yet so i've never done it.

Thank you, it's definitely one of my highlights

I was making a joke that i had to sell my cat's kidney for one of these cards. It's just a gauze with food coloring, but the post got taken down briefly by reddit mod due to "depiction of violence" because of that 😂

Yeah, used to be just the GPU itself, but now RAM too, and GPU has its own RAM component so it's double whammy

How funny it would be if by that time the insane price would not be because of the GPU itself, but because of the memory..

 

Two years ago I made a post on Reddit's pcmasterrace (under same username) that somehow made it to /all and trended for a while.

Fast-forward to today, and I’ve found myself slowly distancing from Reddit with all the drama, weird decisions, and the feeling that any post you make can get nuked on a whim by a power-tripping mod (see: r/art).

So I wanted to anchor this moment with big chungus here on the fediverse as I start a new chapter on Lemmy. Looking forward to hanging out with everyone here and having fun again.

By the way big chungus is alive and well, the same can't be said for the 4090 though, i'm getting coil whine from it and had to live with that until 60 series...
