Fan speeds in temperature progression

The KFA2 RTX 2070 Super Work The Frames comes with the usual start-stop hysteresis and behaves rather moderately. However, the card in the closed housing requires fan speeds of up to 1800 rpm, while in the open structure also approx. 1550 rpm. This card will certainly benefit greatly from proper housing ventilation.

In pure numbers, this looks like this:

Noise emission ("volume")

The 37 dB(A) under full load in the closed housing is not a bad result, this is also much louder at 215 watts (of course also a little quieter). The cooler itself is not bad, as the GPU and VRM temperatures prove.  However, you could easily defuse the fan curve significantly if you set the target temperature to approx. 75 °C, so that you have to do without maybe 60 MHz clock, but the fans have to rotate well below 1500 rpm.
