The noise that you're hearing is comming from the 9800GT. The G92 is a lukewarm chip that can be quiet in its two-slot form factor, but the GT version of the card is only single slot. Because the single slot heatsink is not as efficient at cooling the G92, the fan has to work harder to keep temps down. With the fan working harder it is spinning at higher RPMs and just like your car's engine, higher RPMs means more noise. 99% certain that's where your noise issue is coming from.

I'm using 9800GTX+ myself I have no noise problem here. It's real quiet except when one of the tower fan is lacking lubricant.

GTX+ has a two slot cooler (like my 8800 GTS 512) and doesn't face the same issues as the GT with a single slot cooling solution.

Sorry for the late reply/ bringing back a old thread.
I manage to discovered the guilty part that makes all the noise. It's the case fan! After I and a friend of mine stoped the fan, the noise wall all gone, even the vga card is silent. Will get a new silent fan for the case now! |
