High noise fans gigabyte rx 6750xt

are you sure the noise is connected to fan speed, and not load? seeing as the fans will increase with load since temps do. if not sure, manually crank up the fans while the pc is "idle". if it is the fans, do you have the ability to manually adjust each fan individually? if so, i would crank up each fan 1 at a time to try and isolate which fan is the noisy one. if it is the fan, it could be a bearing noise. could be worth checking if there is some dust buildup as well, or try lightly pressing on the fan while its not spinning to see if it is not pushed in fully(seen fans that do this). if it is not the fans, and it is connected to load instead, could just be coil whine, not much to be done about that, and not usually an issue, just an annoyance.

Hello everyone, 

I own a gigabyte rx 6750 xt windforce graphics card. When the fans spin harder they make a high pitch noise. Is this normal/concerning?

A month ago I saw someone talking about gigabyte motherboard coil whine, and their solution was to pour hot glue onto it... I don't know how reasonable or stupid this solution is, but it worked for them.

i wouldn't do that. i could be wrong, but i would imagine manufacturers would consider doing this if it was a good idea. coil whine has been around forever, manufactures still don't do this. also sounds like a good way to possibly void warranty.

I also felt a bit uncomfortable with doing it myself sooo I decided to just go with a different brand, but I'm still just not sure how common of a practice that is. There was more than one person who said it worked for them. At the very least it might be a fun test if you have something that gives off coil whine that you don't mind possibly breaking.
