I sent my Strix coil squeaks back for it and don't regret it one bit. My synthesizers are higher at the same clock speeds, it runs much quieter, and the only appearance of coil squeak I hear is when trying to listen from just a few inches away. This is a beautiful card that looks great both horizontally and vertically. By default, the BIOS switch is set to Silent, so make sure you toggle it to Gaming. With a gaming BIOS, it will still run in fan mode at 0 RPM until it hits 60C. It has a very conservative default fan curve, so it hits 70C at full load (Cyberpunk, Blender, etc.), but it's pretty quiet and the fans don't go past 50-55% of their total speed. You can definitely set the fan curve more aggressively and make it relatively quiet. Overall I am very happy with this card. It feels very premium (even better than the Strix) and performs better than I expected. The box and accessories also look very high quality and I can say that a lot of effort has gone into this model - they didn't just copy everything like other brands do. It matches the Strix I returned, although its default clock speed is slightly lower, possibly due to its superior cooling. If you want/need a Premium 3090, I would definitely go for this card.
