Replacing Zotac GPU Fan (alien.top)

The Zotac RTX 4060 fan is pretty loud, but is the perfect card for my K39 SFF PC. Has anyone tried replacing the single fan Zotac Rtx 4060 GPU with a quieter fan?

Did it make it a lot more silent?

It did but the downside is because I'm still using the GPU to control the fans they still run all the time and the minimum fan speed is determined by the GPU. I believe for the ZOTAC 4060 Solo the minimum fan speed is 30%. So it may be better if you use standard fans and plug them into the motherboard and control them that way.

I use MSI afterburner and idk if the speed is 30% but I set the fan curve to 20% when under 40c and it’s quiet. It’s just hella loud when at 50%+
