Reddit user seeks noise data for Intel B70 vs AMD R9700 GPUs

A user on the r/LocalLLaMA subreddit is seeking information about the noise levels of Intel's B70 and AMD's R9700 graphics cards when operating at full load. The user is comparing the two cards, noting differences in TDP, price, and cooling solutions, and is specifically asking for decibel (dB) measurements to understand their loudness. They express skepticism about the reported noise levels of the R9700 compared to higher-power cards. AI
