Gigabyte RTX 4080 Super Gaming OC Review

Following on from our stock thermal and acoustic testing, here we re-test the operating temperature of the GPU, but with noise levels normalised to 40dBa. This allows us to measure the efficiency of the overall cooling solution as varying noise levels as a result of more aggressive fan curves are no longer a factor.

Once we normalised noise-levels to 40dBa, the Gaming OC did just sneak in as the best-performing cooler, but not by much – it's peak of 60.5C is less than 2C better than the Palit JetStream OC.

The memory thermals continue to impressive however, peaking 10C lower than the JetStream when noise-normalised.
