Noise Memes

Gigabyte's GPU design philosophy is the hardware equivalent of putting racing stripes on a car with a broken muffler. "Let's create the most sophisticated cooling system known to mankind with vapor chambers and massive heatsinks... and then slap on fans that sound like a Boeing 747 taking off in your living room." The irony of engineering a "quiet gaming" solution only to sabotage it with minimum fan speeds that could drown out a metal concert is just *chef's kiss*. It's like building a stealth fighter jet with a built-in boombox.

Developers will complain about a whisper-quiet cooling fan but then happily type on a mechanical keyboard that sounds like a miniature jackhammer demolishing concrete at 3 AM. The cognitive dissonance is magnificent. The same person who files a warranty claim over a barely audible fan hum will spend $200 on a keyboard specifically engineered to wake the neighbors.
