RX 6900 XT Gigabyte Aorus Master coil noise.

Seems like I am getting a lot of it under load in benchmarks but not in games. Any ideas how this can be?

Coil whine typically shows up under heavier GPU loads (but not always), which could explain why the benchmarks have it. Or it's just the benchmarks stressing the card in a way that different enough from gaming to produce coil whine.

Thanks, I did not even realise that it was coil noise to begin with, I thought that AMD screwed up my audio drivers somehow, because of how loud it was.
