Spoiler! New charts for GPU reviews
Added 2017-05-09 02:10:11 +0000 UTCBig spoiler for our Patreon supporters! You'll see this a day in advance of publication.
The attached is our new chart. I have truncated the legend so as not to spoil the results. The legend shows different video card coolers (check the ASUS Strix review, posting tomorrow, for that information). What you're looking at is thermal performance of each card when outputting a 40dBA noise. We have "normalized" for noise, so to speak, and this helps better differentiate cooler supremacy in a competitive market.
We're excited about these charts, and hope to expand them in the near future. Check the Strix review for all the details!

that makes absolutely perfect sense and is an awesome approach. With the minimal differences between actual performance, the only real differentiator is the cooling approach, and noise is logically the best variable to measure around. I would even suggest lowering it to 35 db, but 40 isn't bad.
