Problem with brand new $1500 pc

[DanG0887]

So I finished my brand new pc about a week ago, when I turned it on I heard a strange buzzing/ static/ beeping noise and located the noise to be coming from the power supply, I tried a bunch of troubleshooting options and figured I must have received a faulty psu, so I swapped it out for another new one, and have the same problem. From there I have found out that unplugging the gpu has stopped the noise but I’m not sure what to do from there. I am also scared that this could be slowly killing the components in my pc because the hard drive recently started getting significantly louder. Please help! I am desperate, and need an experts advice.

We can't help you if you don't list all of your parts and models.

I am not expert but one of your conponents is probably defect.If the voice goes away when you unplug your gpu then the problem is with your gpu?

Ok, i7 8700k, gigabyte RTX 2070 8gb overclockable version, gigabyte z370p d3 motherboard, 16gb DDR4 g skill trident z RAM, a 1tb WD Blue hard drive, NZXT h500i case, and a Corsair cx750 watt power supply (80+ bronze)

Ok, would you suggest I replace the gpu?

Try with another gpu .If there is a no voice with another gpu then send the defect gpu back and get another one.

That said, if it is the gpu, it's probably coil wine, which is a benign annoyance usually. They are ways to mitigate it. 

Play a game the runs with a really high frame rate unlocked and look around. Usually with coil whine, itll change the sound with your camera there. 
It's something you shouldn't have to deal with and if you can get a replacement, cool, but usually is not a problem if it doesn't annoy you.

What does a coil wine sound like? I have a liquid Vega 64 and I keep hearing what I think is the pump, I just want to make sure it's not a coil wine..

tbh I'd rather it be coil whine than the pump myself. Hard to describe. The best thing to do is to look up some videos of coil whine, then try to make the sound change once you learn a little more about it. A lot of the time it's affected by whats being output, so you can make it change frequency and that's certainly not a pump if the case. Try like csgo unlocked no sync

I'm actually playing that right now which is why I hear it. Let me disable my overclocks.

The sound is coming from the PSU tho not the gpu

yah if you move your camera around and it changes, that's a sign.

K I’m the one who posted the problem can someone please help ME and not someone else

if you're 100% it's coming from the psu, that's not uncommon either. Though usually on lower end units. It's odd you tried another one that also did it...

Here's why I think it might not just be the psu- if you unplug the gpu and it stopped, it's probably the gpu if you already tried another psu. I've seen the like 12v rails specifically have coil whine, but often coil whine on a gpu is made better or worse depending on the quality of the power coming into to it. Ripple and stuff. The GPU can also cause the psu to whine, so who knows. 
So I'm not sure here. Try making sure to turn any overclocking off on the gpu, then go to the nvidia control panel>3d settings 

In the global tab, turn the power management mode to "performance" 
See if that causes any change. 


If it does we can narrow down the problem.

Well do you know what’s wrong or have any suggestions?

What I did was just open HWInfo, sensors only, and monitored the timing with the buzzing and looks like it's happening when my GPU clock goes up, but it's not doing it consistently or constantly so it's hard to tell. My GPU also has a light graph on it that tells me which P state it is in, which gives me an idea of how fast it's running without needing software. But that might help you narrow it down.

hmm. That seems to return people saying a clean install of the drivers fixed that for them.

well my original question was does making sure it's at stock clocks and turning that setting to that affect the sound in any way?

I’m not sure, I’ll have to test it in a game give me like 30 minutes
