coil whine Coil Whine coresponding to GPU Load.

[RedShadow]

I have coil whine in my headset through the front audio panel. The back panel is completely normal but it's a pain to use it since it's under the desk.

I tried V-Sync in Minecraft, Rocket League and other BUT it didn't work.

 

What can i do without replacing my 1 day old Strix GTX 950?

Not using your gtx 950?

 

On a more series note, coil wine can’t be removed, it can be slightly reduced however. It’s tied to voltage which is tied to load, so you have to undervolt it and possibly lower clocks and things along that line.

Cheapest option, extension cord.

Better idea, external DAC/AMP

That could work but i want to fix it without spending money (I have NO money to spend). I have seen some threads of someone fixing their front panel buzzing by rerouting the audio cable? Is there any way i can fix it from cables or internals?

If coil wine is as big of an issue to you as you say it is, then that is the most drastic option you can take.
 

However you yourself did point out that the rear audio works fine and @samcool55made a great suggestion on how to alleviate any issues that you had with it.

Try reseating everything incl. motherboard. Or use a grounded outlet. Make sure there is nothing touching the case. Coil whine dosen't usually go through the audio outputs.

Also if not grounded, then make sure that the atx power cord isn't going around any metal as it will give you really weird results.

This PC was built by my friend and i don't really know computers and such. I DON'T hear the coil whine physiclly. It's a problem in the front panel and it responds to the GPU load. Ex. If i'm looking up in the sky in any game, the Buzzing is quiet. But if i look into the high rendered buildings, the buzzing is really not good for ears. My dad uses this PC but uses speakers and i use Headset so i plug the headset on the front and the speakers on the back. If i don't fix it, i might as well be forcing my dad on the headset.

I have red that thread and from the things i have seen, the PSU is the problem or the audio cable. I can't really do anything but look at the front panel cables.

You sure? He still have the problem after. I would seriously consider opening the case and just reseat motherboard, making sure everything is good and not touching anything. Have you tried turning on the pc and touching the back of the case(I/O side)? Tried something similar once. Was a molex connector touching case side panel.

[Kilrah]

Try moving the audio cable inside, and if that doesn't help as mentioned get a $5 extension to plug in the rear port.

Get yourself a grounding loop Isolator. This should solve your problems.

I never tried that.

Unlikely, also an extension cable is like a few bucks.

Something like this should do the trick.

Quality issues and interference are known features on front panel audio. Do whatever you need to do to use the rear ports.
