Normal
I bought the Zotac 1650LP last week. I live in the UK and I am in a similar situation to the previous user who reported earler in the thread, in that I have the Gigabyte 1050ti with periodic signal loss, so I've been looking for an upgrade for my ex-office HP machine.After using the Zotac for a few days I have ended up returning it for noise reasons. The PC is in the living room and the volume levels really were significantly louder than the old 1050ti. Even the baseline 40% speed is distracting and a lot louder than any of our other technology.YMMV of course, but it wasn't really suitable for our home setup. Performance was fine but I just can't recommend it in good faith. Instead I am just going to RMA the 1050ti and upgrade to a card with a better noise profile somewhere down the line.
