hello

 

i have weird GPU buzzing, when PC is off (hard to tell if it has buzzing when on, because fans are louder) and even when i unplug power cables it still buzzing, only when i take it out from PCIe slot, then it stops buzzing

 

also yesterday i installed new MB gigabyte x570 aorus master and i had several times looping LEDs CPU -> DRAM -> VGA, i think after VGA it should be BOOT led, when it start to load OS, but after few Loops MB resets BIOS

 

could it be some kind of GPU problem, that doesn't let PC boot and smart BIOS resets itself

 

my pc:
gigabyte x570 aorus master

Ryzen 3700x

gskill 2x 8Gb - XMP 3600 16-16-16-36-52 1T

EVGA 1080 hybrid

EVGA 850W G3 supernova gold

Samsung M2 970 evo 280Gb

Crucial MX500 1TB SATA

i forgot to mention, that i tried to put in my friennd's Gygabyte 1060 3Gb GPU and it didn't had that buzzing sound

also when i turn off PC and GPU buzzing, then DRAM LED is on, even PSU is unpluged from MB and GPU and stays until i remove GPU, then DRAM LED is off and when i put GPU back into PCIe, then DRAM LED is still off and GPU aren't buzzing

From what you are describing, this buzzing is most probably coil-wine and there isn't really a way around it. Technically manufacturers do not consider it an issue and is not covered under warranty. So your best bet is to return the card if the 14-day return period applies in your country / state. 

 

Regarding the power-cycling of your system, I doubt it is related to the graphics card, because the graphics card isn't required for the PC to complete the post. Meaning, even if you didn't have it installed, it shouldn't make any difference whatsoever. Therefore, my guess is that this power cycling is caused by your RAM. Go back and set the RAM to the default (2400Mhz) and see how it is. I bet the power-cycling will go away.

I am using XMP profile which runs at 3600Mhz speed with 16-16-16-36-52 1T, also i did prime95 test and there wasn't any error after running it ~30mins, with my old MB i had an error even at 3400Mhz speed

so i am thinking that it is GPU issue, because it doesn't pass VGA LED and that LED stays longer than CPU and DRAM

 

i am thinking that when i am closing case side panel, then it pushing power cable and liquid tubes and something happens that trigger an issue

That my friend like suggested above is coil whine! Its not defective. Just the coil vibrates at a certain audible pitch. Its also the reason for some real bargains! My previous dell xps had a list price of £1200, it was returned to seller. I bought it as an open box return a month after it was launched for £800! You could just about hear it if you put your ear to the keyboard lol.

 

Back on topic, if you can identify the coil thats whining a simple and easy fix is blu tac! Just a small bit around the coil, stop all audible sound!

Yup, if you can isolate whats "whining" you could technically use that goop to keep it from vibrating.  If you were to crack a PSU open, that's what they do to keep those coils from whining (huge globs of adhesive)
