    Sapphire nitro+ RX 5700XT coil whine

    An update, I checked and the sound is coming from my graphics cards. Now I connected another PSU, an EVGA 1000 GQ, the coil whine is gone from my graphics card now, but is now coming from my PSU! Unbelievable, I am clueless

    Sapphire nitro+ RX 5700XT coil whine

    Thank you for replies all. I will check when I am home again, to be sure where the sound is coming from. I perhaps can switch PSU and/or GPU with a friend of mine and see what happens. Otherwise, I will just grab the 100$ compensation from the retailer and leave vsync on when playing games, I...

    Sapphire nitro+ RX 5700XT coil whine

    Hello, Recently I have bought a Sapphire nitro+ RX 5700XT, it seems to perform well, however, when the card goes above around 75 FPS, it starts to make a chirping and buzzing noise. Is this coil whine? If so, is it normal or can I better return the card? When I enable vsync when playing a game...
