I've had this gpu for almost exactly a year and it always did an extremely quiet bit of what i assumed was coil whine when playing heavy load games but in the past few months the sound has been happening even when playing smaller games and sometimes (like right now) happening from the moment i turn on my pc and scroll down websites(especially twitter). The sound gets way more prominent and louder when opening amd adrenaline while on any game or place where the coil whine happens.
I've looked up EVERYWHERE and i havent been able to find a similar case to mine which is,while I understand that coil whine does not harm my pc (i have not really had my pc crash ever or to my knowledge any fps problems etc) the amd adrenaline metrics show my rpm going up by a few hundreds while the sound is louder(example from 900 slowly to 1100 or so,after turning on the performance overlay which makes the sound louder, and then going back down) and gpu temps rising by a few single digits too. i updated to the newest amd drivers yesterday (without turning off my pc after) and the louder whine,at least on websites has went back to normal.( aka its mostly quiet at the start and after having my pc on for a while/playing games it will eventually start happening while on twitter etc). I restarted my pc today after the sound started even while scrolling through twitter and it was gone again,coming back after 2-3 hours(probably because i opened a game i guess??)
One thing i've noticed is that even when my gpu is seemingly making 0 noise,when I click on the Record & Stream tab in adrenaline it always makes a whine for a second or so.
Sorry if i posted this in the wrong spot and for grammar mistakes etc but im completely lost,cannot find anyone with the same problem.
