Hello,

I recently upgraded my 3080 Ti FTW3 with the appropriate hybrid kit (by EVGA), and currently I’m debating in wether or not it’s worthwhile to replace the stock radiator fans on the hybrid kit.
I can’t seem to find the specs of the default fans anywhere, so comparing is hard.
I’d prefer to have rgb fans like as they come stock, using an additional 5V connector, but of course, performance is more important than RGB - i am trying to lower the sound of the fans.

    I think the VRAM/VRM fan is the loudest culprit when you bump it up 80%+ fan speeds.
     
    However in some cases I was getting above 50c during benchmarks.  I swapped out with two Noctua NF-A12x25 PWMs with the full rubber.   I set MSI Afterburner to 90% and I haven't seen my GPU temp go above 43c now.   I think what helps the most is the special rubber gaskets it comes specifically meant for radiators (Creating a full seal).
