I don't think Macbeth did die a noble death, he was relying on what the witches told him and died when that didn't help him in the least, otherwise, I don't think he would've gone out and faught. (I might not be right, I've not read it in a while) Boromir, on the other hand, stood and faught even though he knew there was a possibility of dying.
