Sycom, a Japanese graphics card manufacturer, has launched its new GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, 5070, and 5060 Silent Master series, all featuring Noctua cooling fans. Known for their premium cooling solutions, Noctua has become a go-to brand for many manufacturers, including ASUS. 
While ASUS has been known for creating flashy triple- and dual-fan designs, Sycom has chosen a more minimalist approach for its new models, focusing on quiet yet efficient cooling performance.
The Silent Master GPUs come with a dual-fan setup, featuring a full-metal shroud, a heat sink equipped with three 6mm copper heat pipes, and a metal backplate. This design ensures that the cards perform with a near-silent operation. According to Sycom’s internal testing, the Silent Master series generates noise levels between 34.9 and 35.9 decibels under load, and 31.4 decibels while idle. This is significantly quieter compared to similar graphics cards, which can produce around 46-47 decibels at load.
When it comes to temperatures, the Silent Master series shows impressive cooling capabilities. The RTX 5060 Ti peaks at 79.1 °C, the RTX 5070 reaches 81.8 °C, and the RTX 5070 Ti peaks at 81.6 °C, with average temperatures of 76.2 °C, 77.4 °C, and 76.5 °C, respectively. These cooling performance metrics ensure that users enjoy smooth gameplay without overheating their systems.
In terms of specifications, Sycom sticks to the reference clock speeds across all three models. The GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Silent Master features a 2.5-slot design with two Noctua NF-A9x14 PWM fans running at 2200 RPM at maximum speed. The RTX 5070 Silent Master has a 3.5-slot design and uses two Noctua NF-A12x25 LS-PWM fans running at 1200 RPM at maximum speed. The RTX 5070 Ti, being the most powerful, has a 3.8-slot design with two Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans running at 2200 RPM at maximum speed. The 5060 Ti measures 250x120x44mm, while the other two cards are larger at 315x145x66mm.
Sycom plans to distribute the Silent Master series through OEMs and system integrators who will incorporate these cards into pre-built systems. While the exact pricing is yet to be confirmed, it’s expected that there will be a slight premium for these graphics cards due to their quiet performance. Interested buyers can check out Sycom’s pre-built PCs that feature these graphics cards on their official website.
