echo/noise cancellation plugins

I just got open back headphones and I was wondering, are there any good plugins I don't know about for cancelling out echo/feedback loops into your mic? I am currently using RTX voice which does a pretty good job but maybe there's others. Mumble has multichannel echo cancellation which I have enabled but I'm not sure what the actual effect is from it. Would be nice to have something to cancel out the output from my headphones into my mic similar to how phones do it when on speaker mode. Don't listen to music that loud or anything but there definitely is some input to my mic that isn't wanted.

Okay I did some tests recording with the mic with various settings and RTX voice basically completely eliminates any noise from my keyboard as well as making leaking music in the background almost inaudible too (only when I'm talking and its turned up REALLY loud, otherwise it basically just does a noise gate and doesn't have anything).

Will have to test in a mumble to see, only problem I can foresee is if other people are talking and I have my audio set loud and RTX voice detects the other people's voices leaking through my headphones, but I guess mumble's echo cancellation should hopefully fix that. For anyone who doesn't have an RTX card you can edit a few lines of code (link) and get it to work. It works surprisingly well and automatically pretty much eliminates all fan noise/background noise, although you can turn the noise reduction down and tweak it if you want.

could you benchmark with RTX voice enabled? everything comes at a price, in this case in GPU usage and CPU cycles; while you may have just upgraded your rig, many people have not, hence they might experience some performance loss
whether its considerable or not is something we have to find out, especially if people are going to attempt something on GTX cards without the actual tensor cores

Fair point, not sure how much of an impact it is, but I ran it with my old rig (4770k and gtx 1060) and didn't notice any major impact
