Do you think im just unlucky with coil whine?

[Toxicable]

Ive now tried 2 PSU's, EVGA 500B and CM V650S, aswell as 2 graphics cards, ASUS strix 960 and Gigabyte G1 960, and all of them have had coil whine. Ive been able to tell that the GPUs are since the noise level changes when in game/stressing the cards. I don't know if I should try get another set of components  or if it's maybe just this house  at this stage.

You might just be unlucky. I had this annoying issue with my old gtx580 where it only coil whined when I was playing osu. I don't even understand.

My 500B and G1 Gaming 960 don't have any coil whine at all. Perhaps you should just get them replaced? Or is it only when you stress them a lot?

The 500b is pretty constant, the G1 gets worse the more load you put on it.

The V650 is usually absolutely quiet for the first few hours then it makes a hell of a noise.

Oh and the strix was like the G1, quiet when 0 load but gets worse as you put more on it.

Every single GPU I have owned has whined to some extent. Its pretty normal, but you can try and RMA and hope you get lucky.

Yeah, mine have none. That's a bit weird. What are your temps, your case and the such?

Well currently I got the G1 in OC'd to 1512 and it dosent get to more than 70 degrees, but about 50 on avg in games. CPU is at 4.2 and it goes up to about 70 max in P95, about 40 or so when in non CPU intensive games and that's got the 212 Plus with a Akasa Apache (Push) fun running at about 1000 RPM- Im not at home currently so cant remember exact figures.

In terms of cooling I got 2 front fans (intakes) 2 top and 1 back (exhausts) all running at about 900 RPM which is about the same noise level that I get from the HDD when they're running.

Also the PSU is mount fan down into it's own intake vent.

The case is a Zalman R1 btw

May try downclocking it and seeing how it does.
