If you have induction, how do you feel about the sound of the range? I still have an ancient gas burner (though I did install a good ventilation fan), but when I've cooked on an induction stove elsewhere, it both made an annoying high-pitched squeal (think old CRTs but louder) and had fan noises kicking on and off. It annoyed the crap out of me.

I don't want to get another gas burner, and technologically induction does seem like the clear winner, but the noise thing is really throwing me off. What's your experience?

I'll explain. New home or apartment construction is more air tight than it used to be and companies cheap out and don't install real exhaust vents over stoves. Just a fan and a cheap filter. Now what happens when you burn hydrocarbons in an enclosed space? You get byproducts that tend to be harmful to air breathers. See this article for more info. https://www.scientificamerican...

For those still angry, let me tell you about the miracle of induction cooking. If the three Michelin star restaurant French Laundry can use induction, so can you.

Keep in mind, N-Shitty-A are deliberately restricting DLSS updates to the 40X0 series or later. The 30X0 series are unduly hamstrung by N-Shitty-A not properly updating the drivers, just so N-Shitty-A can try to force people to buy new cards every 3 years.
