If you can then buy "founders edition" cards.

I have an RX 6700 XT from AMD themselves and it's great.

The reason I went down that route was that the AIB partners all beef the cards coolers up and thus the dimensions. I build in small SFF cases for travel reasons and usually end up undervolting and downclocking my cards so I really don't need the monster coolers the AIBs are so fond of.

Unfortunately they generally only seem to be available in limited quantities and for a limited time which is a real shame.

My 6900XT FE has _terrible_ coil whine. I can troubleshoot some types of issues with my models by ear.

It's so bad I thought my card was defective the first time I heard it. It's usually fine if I cap framerate to a reasonable number though.

Maybe look at undervolting, you can do it from the AMD software pretty easily and for me it solved a bit of a coil whine problem under boost scenarios but YMMW it depends on sample to sample I think.

I can tell how close stable diffusion is to finishing based on the current noise pattern it is almost useful
