Catching up where we’re behind, we come to the GeForce RTX 4060. Across designs, these graphics cards represent not only the most efficient and lowest-power across the latest generation of Nvidia Ada Lovelace, but overall (i.e., even compared to the latest Radeons, including the competing RX 7600). The advantage of the tested (RTX 4060) Windforce OC 8G design is in its smaller size and extra compatibility.
Frequency response of sound
Measurements are performed in the TrueRTA application, which records sound in a range of 240 frequencies in the recorded range of 20–20,000 Hz. For the possibility of comparison across articles, we export the dominant frequency from the low (20–200 Hz), medium (201–2,000 Hz) and high (2,001–20,000 Hz) range to standard bar graphs.
However, for an even more detailed analysis of the sound expression, it is important to perceive the overall shape of the graph and the intensity of all frequencies/tones. If you don’t understand something in the graphs or tables below, you’ll find the answers to all your questions in this article. This explains how to read the measured data below correctly.

*>With the Sapphire RX 6900 XT Toxic LE, as with the only tested graphics card, the spectral analysis also includes the sound of the water pump.
Perhaps I remembered wrongly, but I thought the analysis section was a bit different (on the size of the cooler and heatpipes)?
Anyway, it’s a shame that this model has such poor thermal performance. The fin stacks looks ok, the fans look fine, so the most likely culprit is indeed the lack of a second heatpipe. The similarly sized MSI Ventus 2X is much better in comparison.
The fans are smaller, with a diameter of 80 mm and a profile height of 10 mm. The heatsink is lower, the cooler with the cover fits comfortably into two slots. The heat pipe has a diameter of 6 mm, its path is well visible from the TechPowerUp tests. We don’t disassemble graphics cards, so that the next reviewer in line, who will test the sample, can also measure the correct (undistorted) values.
