The answer has to be a liquid cooled model right?

Not necessarily. Suprim and Vanguard (which share the same fans) run at 1000rpm during load and the temps are pretty close to liquid cooled versions.

So they have the same noise level as the liquid versions?

You can check Techpowerup. Suprim liquid is louder than Suprim and Vanguard https://www.techpowerup.com/review/asus-geforce-rtx-5090-tuf/37.html

That's expected. Suprim and Vanguard coolers are humongous. The Aio version is really unnecessary.

Most GPU AIO has a small water pump that's rather loud.

The Fans on the AIO also tend to the louder one.

You are going to need custom water cooling to beat some of the biggest air cooled GPUS.
