With the room silent, and me sitting next to my > machines, I don't even know they're on. Is there a decent, inexpensive, quiet card?
The 1000-series Nvidia cards had power/heat reduction as a design point, and my 1080 is very quiet just doing normal desktop compositing. If I crank up GTA V at 4K it does make some noise, but still a lot less than the 780 it replaced. A 1060 wouldn't be inexpensive exactly, but it should be both capable and quiet.
