Hey. Today i moved to a new platform which is b450 tomahawk max, ryzen 7 3700x and 2x8 crucial ballistix sport lt 3200 mhz oc to 3600. I took my old psu chieftec cft-600-14cs and gpu gtx 1060 msi gaming x 6 gb. My old pc was gigabyte p67a-b3-d3 mobo, i5 2500 and 16 gb some hyperx ram. So when i launched a game and played for a bit i started noticing a wierd noise which was coming from my gpu, i turned the game off and launched another one, it had like 200-300 fps in menu and coil whining was louder than with lower fps. Game crashed, i tried launching it few times but there was loud coil whine and crashes to windows. I read somwhere that i should cap my fps so i did and coil whine was quieter but still noticeable, also game didnt crash. It never happen before all move to a new platform, it started with a new rig. Any suggestions what could be causing coil whine?

All coils whine.  We just can’t hear them.  Many dogs hate computers for this reason. From a dogs perspective computers make obnoxious noises.

The note of that whine changes depending on exactly what a particular coil is doing.  Coil whine happens when the coil, which constantly vibrates, happens to do it in such a way that  sympathetic vibrations are formed within the range of human hearing. 

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Today my pc crashed, got blue screen. I can stress cpu and gpu in gpu/cpu z and nothing happens, no whining, no crashes also tested in heaven benchmark and it passed. When it comes to games they crash after few minutes. Temps are pretty good 59-60°C on gpu and around 65°C on cpu. Totally i have no idea what could be causing this.
