Hey so I bought new gpu recently and it worked without problems at first but it started making weird sounds few says back. I cant exactly describe like what it sounds because i never heard anything like it. It sounds like mix of purring of cat and drill. The sound starts when i play some game and doesnt stop untill i turn my PC off. If i just browse internet it doesnt occur. Therefore to me it looks like some kind of coil whine, but I am not sure because i never heard any coil whine like that.

Some people get really unlucky and buy a card that has coil whine worse than a slipping car belt. I'm sorry man.. RMA it?

Sounds like coil whine alright. Most of the times the higher Quality GPUs have less coil whine and the MSRP models have more coil whine. It's pretty much a lottery in terms of how bad it can be.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

So my PSU is Seasonic m12 bronze evo edition, my mobo is gigabyte ga-h81m-hd3 pretty old one but i dont think this is the problem, my CPU is I7 4790 3.6 GHz and the gpu i bought recently is gigabyte gtx 1660 OC. I know my decriiption isnt very good but as i said i cant describe it better.

It's the card's quality and choke quality 

It's doesn't affect performance 

Wear headphones and ignore it lol
