Sycom launches RTX 5070 Ti, 5070, and 5060 Ti Silent Master GPUs with Noctua fans

Sycom updates its Silent Master series of Noctua-cooled GPUs with new RTX 50 series models

Sycom, the Japanese PC builder, has launched three new RTX 50 Silent Master series GPUs. These GPU models place low noise levels above all other considerations. Using Noctua fans, the company’s RTX 5060 Ti, RTX 5070, and RTX 5070 Ti GPU models promise lower noise levels than competing RTX 50 series GPUs. That said, these custom GPUs will only be available inside Sycom’s BTO series systems and won’t be available as standalone products.

For the company’s RTX 5070 and RTX 5070 Ti models, Sycom are using Noctua’s NF-A12x25 series fans. For their RTX 5060 Ti model, the company has opted for two smaller NF-A9-x14 fans. Sycom’s RTX 5070 Ti GPU is 3.8 PCIe slots thick, while its RTX 5070 and RTX 5060 Ti counterparts are 3.5 slots and 2.5 slots thick respectively.

When compared with graphics cards from a competitor called M (MSI?) Sycom claims to deliver much better acoustic performance. All three GPU models stay under 36 dB under load. That’s more than 10 dB below competing RTX 50 series GPU models. Since an added 10 dB doubles the perceived noise levels of products, this makes Sycom’s Silent Master GPUs less than half as noisy as their competitors. These GPUs are so quiet that it would be hard to hear them in rooms with any ambient noise.

While these GPUs may not be the most aesthetically pleasing available, what they deliver is highly valuable. GPU power requirements have increased a lot over the past few generations. With this in mind, it is good to see a company that’s investing in minimising noise levels. That said, it is a shame that these GPUs are exclusive to Sycom’s pre-built PCs. There’s a lot of people who would love a silent graphics card.
