Whether noisy quantum devices without error correction can provide quantum advantage over classical computers is a critical issue of current quantum computation. In this work, the random quantum circuits, which are used as the paradigm model to demonstrate quantum advantage, are simulated with depolarizing noise on experiment relevant two-dimensional architecture. With comprehensive numerical simulation and theoretical analysis, we find that the maximum achievable operator entanglement entropy, which indicates maximal simulation cost, has area law scaling with the system size for constant noise rate. On the other hand, we also find that the maximum achievable operator entanglement entropy has power law scaling with the noise rate for fixed system size, and the volume law scaling can be obtained only if the noise rate decreases when system size increase.
