Klages

Not going to do a file server, but it would be annoying if I ran out of space, and storage is not expensive. Raid1 is a good idea, it adds redundancy. I'll add it to the list.

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Satisfactory, Factorio, CSGO, Proxmox, Teamspeak Other details: Currently running an EliteDesk 800 G2 which has not enough Single Core performance My current mini pc I am using as a server has not enough single core performance, especially for game servers. So I am thinking to build a new one with more single core performance. Do you have any recommendations to my build? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pwGJyK

does it have coil whine?

nevermind

yeah i wouldn't mind to buy a new one if it fixes the coil whine, it's just a bit shitty as i already bought sleeved cables. the thing is that the coil whine is really loud, i can hear it clearly over the fans which are already loud on the 3090 i must have been lucky in the past as i've never had a card with coil whine.

thx, i already remounted gpu und psu. the gpu is powered by 3 seperate power cables. are drivers really a factor in coil whine? the noise is mechanical so i don't get how a driver should change this? undervolting would be the last thing i try to do, i have to see if i can borrow a psu to see if this is really the issue. frames are not the problem, it happens in benchmarks even with 50 fps.

i use a new Corsair HX1000 Platinum PSU, also from my understanding coil whine shouldn't relate to the PSU as long as it is not undersized.

i received my 3090 Strix OC on monday, after a bit of testing i notice a really loud coil whine in specific load scenarios (games/benchmarks). does anyone here have the card already as well? i'm curious if the coil whine persists on all cards or if it is just mine.

registered to say thank you! this was exactly what caused my installer to fail!
