Yeah, fresh windows install. Also cleared CMOS and updated mobo bios driver. Cooler (be quiet dark pro 2 - 150w tdp) should be good enough. Ambient temp is room temp. Airflow is good. Fans are blasting. I've got no clue what's going on, I'm probably just returning everything to get my money...

Hey guys, Decided to upgrade from my old i7 9700k to a 7800X3D. For this I also needed new mobo and ram. (See here: View: https://i.imgur.com/kvRzfwo.png ). When installing a noticed my PSU only have one 8pin connector, when the motherboard has 2. I read online that this wasn't an issue...

@Lutfij Sorry for the lacking info My current specs are: mobo: MSI MPG Z390 Gaming Edge AC CPU: i7 9700k GPU: gigabyte 1080ti PSU: (brand new) be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM 600W RAM: 2x8GB 3000mhz Storage: samsung EVO 250gb and QVO 1`T The coil whine with the new PSU and the 7y/o PSU is exactly...

Recently I upgraded my CPU from a 4770k to a 9700k. With that upgrade also came a new motherboard and RAM (because 4770k is old socket). Ever since then I've been having issues with coil whine. At first I thought it was my PSU because it was 7 years old and at the end of its life. However with a...

100% get the EVGA! IMO gigabyte only produces cheap <Mod Edit>. The GPU cooler on my 1080ti was pretty loud and ran pretty hot. When I bought a gigabyte MOBO it had coil whine and when I bought a PSU it didn't work. EVGA also has excellent customer support.

Alright man. Thanks for the advice. I'll pick up an Aorus pro soon and return the UD. Luckily where I live you can return any product bought online within 14 days and get a full refund :)

I might have downgraded, but the UD is better than the gaming x in terms of noise/coil whine. My previous mobo's were not very expensive either and I never had any sound issues with those. PCpartpicker also lists the z390 ud in many of its builds (also in its 9700k build) so I figured it...

Hey guys, I recently upgraded to a 9700k and I noticed that my gigabyte z390 gaming x made some pretty annoying noises. I assume this was coil whine but I could not fix it by disabling C-states. I returned this motherboard and got a gigabyte z390 ud. While this one is more silent, the noises...

@RARRAF @HyperV @Beast378 I think i found the solution. My aftermarket gpu cooler is so large that the MOBO was blocking it. As a result the gpu was just barely not fully inserted into the PCIe slot, even when it seemed that it was. I removed a part of the cooler that was blocking the card and...

edit: [SOLVED]. See my comment below Hey guys, I've tried my fair share of things now but I can't figure this one out. It's very strange. I recently upgraded my: CPU + cooler, motherboard and RAM. Everything else is the same. Before this upgrade used to have a few moments where I got no...
