So I left memtest86 to do its thing for 3 hours and the new memory has no errors at all. Anyone know what's up??

So I did a UserBenchmark benchmark and the new memory is obviously performing better than the old one (79.4% vs 73.8%). How the hell am I experiencing a performance drop then?

All temps are OK, below 70 C, just like before.

i5 7500 Gigabyte H110M-S2H GTX 1660 6GB SP S55 120GB SSD Seagate Barracuda 2TB XFX TS 430W PSU It is running at 2400MHz (mobo's max). It is dual channel. The system sees all 16gb.

So a few days ago I upgraded my 2 sticks of HyperX Fury 4GB 2133MHz DDR4 memory to 2 sticks of Patriot Viper Steel 8GB 3200MHz. My motherboard supports only up to 2400MHz RAM, but I have read on the internet that faster RAM will just downclock to the mobo maximum and everything will be OK. I...

Thank You!

Here's a better recording of the sound.

Guess I'll have to try to put it in another PC.

I've tried putting it outside the case, on my mouse pad. It still made the sounds. Also, today I was downloading a game, and the hard drive was writing 200-300 MB/s, but it didn't make any sound. So I think it's making the sounds only when it's reading.

The store said that it made a small amount of noise like a normal HDD when they tested it. I think my PC is the problem, because my old hard drive makes the exact same noise as the new one. I'll try to put it in another PC when I get the chance. Some people are saying that some hard drives just...

Formatting the drive didn't help.

I'll try to format it on Saturday. Thanks for the answers!

Max recorded temperature is 39c. I'm really thinking that the problem is my data because when I was copying stuff to it, it didn't make any sounds.

I tried every possible SATA cable, power cable and SATA port. Nothing helps. This is the sound the hard drive makes (1 min long sound clip) (if you hear mouse clicking, it's my mouse haha)

They said the hard drive is fine. Maybe the problem is my PC? When I was copying data to the new hard drive, it wasn't making any sounds. But when I booted the PC with the new hard drive, it started making sounds. Is it possible that the problem is the data?
