Hello!
I'm using a 2019 Dell g5 15 SE laptop with the following components:
Win 10 (x64)
Intel i7-9750H
GeForce RTX 2060
Toshiba 1TB NVMe SSD
My aggregate AS SSD Score: 3082
And the Windows Memory Diagnostic found 0 issues with my laptop's memory.
However, I'm having persistent issues with the memory and speed. At times, it will need 10-15 seconds to open file explorer via the Windows task bar and clicking it multiple times will open as many windows when it finally decides to fire. The screen will go black often when I'm doing light multitasking such as uploading a video file to the internet and having an Adobe program open. These issues got worse after I plugged in my Raid system (it's just two 32TB cans tethered together). The computer also often crashes while playing DOTA 2 and Remnant: From the Ashes (with or without Raid system plugged in).
Edit: I'm hearing a persistent high pitched whine coming from the computer today, kind of similar to how old desktop printers would sound while printing. The whine lasts 1 second, pauses for a fraction of a second, then whines again, over and over.
I bought this just last year, really didn't expect these issues. I've run it through all the standard tests (PC Mark 10, Cinebench R20, Superposition, Heaven, 3D Mark) and the results are all pretty decent. Can I get some insight as to what might be happening?
