I’ll add that change on the next test.

Enjoyed the article Kent. The third and fourth charts could do with an extra row at the top to make it obvious which one was ‘noise normalised’ and ‘100% fan speed’. I like the fact that I can estimate temps for my 5950x at eco, normal and PBO etc at a glance.

The first statement should have read “began to notice”. You are correct on the second. I believe they were in the word document and just got lost somewhere along the way, but perhaps I accidentally edited them out in my final draft. I’ll have to check later.

Other than the editting issues, what is your opinion on the new testing? Ì’d like to hear some feedback.

a little further down “One other note is that I would like to address the point 42 dB may seem high” – did you mean to say “One other note I would like to address is that 42 dB may seem high” ?
