Mr.Mato
Does anyone have links to a youtube video demonstrating the issue? I am curious how bad it's been for peaop. 

Someone posted this.
 
I wonder if FTW3s are the same since the fan philosophy seems identical.

Jacob replied to a post earlier on Twitter saying ftw3 fan is not the same, bigger.
Can't say I see a huge difference looking at the 3090 comparison pics though

Hmm that's great to hear than but yeah it's near impossible to spot the differences from photos.

 
I just wish they'd sell a barebones PCB card from scratch version, and let us buy aftermarket cooling choices we want.  I don't recall any nvidia or evga card I've ever bought where it wasn't noisy either by their fans or their coil whine.

RMA's always happen.  I had to RMA my 1080 because they didnt apply thermal pads correctly on a bunch of the first cards.

Ha - I had the same issue and had to RMA my 1080 FTW,  which is what I replaced with this 3080 XC3 Ultra.
 
I recorded a video of mine - this is the third fan by the power connectors.  At the end I enabled a fan profile to shut it off,  you can hear the noise stops before it totally spins down - and can hear the other 2 fans speed up.
 
The vibration sound in the first half I believe is coming from my CPU cooler. https://youtu.be/kMtPsKnAvCc
 
 
 
 

I'm seeing 3 fan controls and curve graphs in Precision X1 for my GX 1080 Ti FTW3.

Might have to turn up volume YT compressed audio or something because it's much louder when my phone plays the source file.

I think you just convinced me this is a design flaw in the PWM.

I checked the video, running DAC/AMP ref headphones - I cannot recognize eerie noise you're speaking about (maybe I'm half deaf).
 
XC3 Black on backorder, I hope it doesn't have any issues. I can't return it since it is a final sales.

Yes it’s very odd I can hear it fine on iPad and my Note 9 but on Presonus Studio monitors I have to turn it up pretty loud to hear it at a still quieter volume.

It may be clearer in the vid I posted in the other thread: https://youtu.be/kMtPsKnAvCc
 
It doesn't seem super loud in the video, but it really is.  My case is on my floor next to my desk and I can hear it over games,  it's really grating on the nerves.

It’s very annoying for sure
