lol what comparison are you making? thats a massive TDP card thats gonna consume twice as much power than the ps5. also if you didnt notice one is dedicated gpu with most of them having 3 fans. compare ps5 with ps5 lah, why compare with product not even in the same segment

nah dude, sony sent reviewers PS5s with the better fans to ensure that they’ll say the system is quiet. however, real retail units contain fans that not only perform worse, but aren’t even the same fans. i’d say customers are allowed to be pissed. it might not be a big deal to you, but it is to other people, they are delivered a product which is inferior to the review units

why should i stop nitpicking? is it hurting your feelings when an inanimate object is being criticised? it was designed in such a way that its massive and heavy, a huge tradeoff from last gen where the consoles were much smaller, but much louder also. and almost every single reviewer out there put an emphasis on the silence of ps5, so when people find out they’re not getting the same components it’s reasonable to assume the noise performance is not going to be the same either

iit must be pretty significant that there has been multiple reports complaining of the same thing. also a lot people actually have their consoles set up on a desk with their monitors. 5db is also a significant increase, especially if you’re using it on a desk. that’s why people spend a bunch of time in bioses to tweak fan curves.

you’re right. i’m making assumptions that are far fetched. i doubt there’s a significant difference if you’re using it in a living room setup, but i do believe it would affect desktop gamers. I was jumping on the bandwagon, so easy to attack a giant corporation. thank you for being reasonable even though i wasn’t. there is still hope in humanity

bro dont like that bro, health of us more important than game 😅
