The 3700x with a GPU with a fan is going to be a lot easier to make silent than a 12th gen Intel is going to be.

Also many GPUs support the fan turning off when idle.



I was about to post this. The fans on my AMD RX 580 never turn on unless I'm gaming or doing some crazy WebGL stuff. I can only imagine that newer ones are even more efficient in this regard.
