Might be true. But I don't see any advantages in buying the HX750i so far.

Oh I see. I guess it's save to go with the RMi then since it has newer cables, lower ripping and a lower price.

This review of the RMi shows sleeved cables: (start at 4:20) Whereas a review of the HXi shows flat cables: (start at 2:50) and in the sleeved cables of the RM750i I guess there are some capacitors hidden. EDIT: I know these videos are old but also if I get the most recent videos the HX750i still has the flat cables and the RM750i the sleeved with the capacitors inside.

Well I just can't really get a final decision out of all you say... I kind of like the sleeved cables so I might just go with the RMi but the HXi has better efficiency and is Platinum... @jonnyGURUwhat do you think about the price? EDIT: Today the HXi is even on a small sale and only 25$ more expensive.

Roughly 30$ more. Converted to USD the RMi is ~180$ and HXi ~210$.

Well... What to do now? I am mainly replacing my old CoolerMaster MWE 650W because my new 2080 Super needs a lot of power when overclocking and when I stop gaming there comes a humming noise from the PSU. Also the RTX 2080 Super has extreme coil whine (also the 1060 had coil whine but not as much probably because of less power consumption) and I hope with a better PSU the coil whine goes away. Also I'd like to be able to see by power consumption in real-time; that's why I go for the "i"-series. Someone tells me to get RMi and someone else tells me the exact contrarity. Is there any other points to get either one (or none of these)?

I need to buy a new PSU but now I struggle between the RM750i and the HX750i. From the specs sheet HX750i is better than RM750i but in the reviews and unboxings I found out that RM750i has sleeved cables with capacitors in them and HX750i has not. Now which one should I get? I thaught that having capacitors inside of the cables is good and more expensive, so why doesn't the HX750i have them? Or is the HX750i better built so that the cables don't need the capacitors meaning the signal is filtered inside of the PSU already? I kind of like the cables that are sleeved because in my eyes it makes them look more premium. The RM750i cables are sleeved in one sleeve (good enough) but the HX750i are not at all and from the reviews they look kind of cheap...

Oh... So can I install both programs without them interfering each other? Aren't they both supposed to change RGB colors and stuff?

So yea... I installed the 2080S and the coil whining is even worse than it was with the 2070S. But one more thing now appears: If I really push the card to the max with Benchmarks and then stop benchmarking the CoolerMaster PSU creates a weird humming noise that fades away after about 30 seconds. Definitively going to change that PSU asap. This is going to be the game changer for me... I always wanted to see the exact amount of power I am consuming... Why isn't that standard anyways? Will this be available via the iCUE software or are there also other programs that can read the PSU watts? And btw... I was just in time getting that 2080S @Kilrah! Now the price is back to normal (Switzerland price of ~885$) digitec.ch

Indeed... They even are both at the exact same price. Which one would you consider to be better?

Oh I was already looking at this one a while ago! This is the Swiss retailer: digitec.ch True... But it's only about 14$ more expensive and with 750W I still have a bit of room (not that I really need it but I don't really look at price tags. I want good things)

@MateyyyIt only sais "MWE Bronze 650" on the front of the package so I suppose it's the v1? Pretty sure it's this one: coolermaster.com True... It's because it looks nice if a lot of things are from the same brand (it's glass) but with the PSU I could go wild because in the Sharkoon TG5 I have you don't see the PSU. I just supposed it's good if you have all from the same brand. May I ask what you would recommend?

That's the exact deal I got at digitec.ch. Sorry if I told this wrong in the first place. It's a brand new card and I haven't even opened yet. So is this still a bad deal or is that better like this? Okey... So if I insert the card and it still whines and then I replace my PSU it might go away?

So I was lucky and got hands on a very affordable ASUS GeForce RTX 2080S ROG Strix O8G Gaming. It cost me about 150$ less than usual and I know you might think what a bad time to buy a 2080S just when the new 30-series might be available in stores but in my country I usually have to wait for another month or two and the 3070 isn't even out yet so this could have lasted until December or something. (and a 3080 would be overkill because I'm playing 1080p) Soo... I just recently RMA'ed a 2070 Super also of ASUS ROG because it had immense coil whining. I talked with ASUS support and they told me it's the card and I should RMA it. I also just recently bought an ASUS ROG motherboard so that should not cause any problem at all. So I RMA'ed it and they gave me the money back because they didn't have any card aveilable... So I was stuck with my old GTX 1060 and really wanted a better card so I found this nice offer of about 700$. (yes I know it's still much but Switzerland usually has prices up to 950$ for a 2080 Super so I took the deal) But... As I opened the glass pane of the PC while it was running I heared a very very very silent coil whine from the 1060. I never heared it before when I was playing on it a while ago for several years but it was here now... Might have been here since the beginning but now I noticed it. So I got sceptical and started Minecraft with Shaders, stood to a wall and let the Frames spike to about 150FPS. I could hear the coil whine better now. Not comparable with the 2070 Super tho... This thing was blasting the noise right at my ears even with the glass pane on it. Now I kind of guess it could also be the PSU. I have a CoolerMaster MWE Bronze 650 and I also said that to the ASUS support but they didn't even consider it being the cause because the noise clearly comes from the graphics card and not from the PSU. But it kind of makes me wonder if maybe I should better upgrade to a ASUS ROG-STRIX-750G instead? It's a bit expensive but I'd do anything if the coil whine goes away. Now to my most important question: Can a PSU make permanent damage to a Graphics Card so that it has coil whine forever? I mean... I haven't installed the 2080 Super yet but I'd really like to. But if you guys think this could damage the card and then it whines forever after and I should better get an expensive PSU first then I should probably listen to you. Does anyone know more?

Thanks for your answer The 750x is even cheaper for some reason. So if you tell me the Corsair is better I'm more than happy to go for it. But if it doesn't make a difference... Will it even make a difference to the Cooler Master MWE Bronze 650W I currently have in my build?
