Pc Making a buzzing noise from inside

[Daniel123dk]

So, i just opened up my bf4 and my pc started making a constant buzzing noise, what could it be?

[AverageHardware]

Hmm. Opening up BF4(Assuming you are loading maps) means disk usage. Disk usage and buzzing. Could that be it? then again, there aren't any HDDs in your sig.

[hypnodog]

It's most likely coil whine from your GPU. Enabling V-Sync should help.

[GodSpoon]

Check your fans? It could be a large number of things 

 

Is the sound from your hard disk? or Motherboard? or GPU?

[Castdeath97]

This could explain 

 

[MangoIce]

if its coming from fans it could be a collision of some king between x surface and fan blade, dust, gfx card? Silent power supply which has magically made a noise, Although as I can see you do have a full custom loop so you might wanna check that

Not my SSD

I just saw full custom loop. It's probably the pump.

That helped a bit. Then its the gpu, what do i do?

Its not coming from the pump

It only comes when i go into a intensive game.

Ahh. It must be GPU coil whine then. Nothing you can do about it. Doesn't mean your card is failing either.

So i have to live with it? it feels like the card is dying or something

[hypnodog]

Really all you can do is ignore it. If it's really annoying, you can try to RMA it and get another card. As I said before, enabling V-Sync (or any kind of FPS cap) will lessen the whine.

The problem is. When i mounted the waterblock, i voided the guarantee. so i must go and buy a new one if i really should

then it is the graphics card unless you have also watercooled the GFX card too

You can try to make it look as stock as possible

If that doesn't work, just sell it to someone who doesn't mind it or at the very least put sound dampening foam in your case.

It doesn't mean it is dying. My router has had coil whine since day 1 and its been working for years. It's just annoying.

^^^yes

Well. If i sell it to another, am i then in my right to claim it is DOA?

[hypnodog]

Well. If i sell it to another, am i then in my right to claim it is DOA?

No, since the card is still functional. It just has some angry inductors.

It was not really what i meant. You know if i sell it to another, and he claims that i scammed him. Am i then in my right to claim to him that its DOA?

Well, not really. As I said the card is still functional, so if you sell it with a DOA only return policy, the person can not return it. If you said the card has bad coil whine, and the person buys it, it's his problem because the whine problem was clearly noted.

Ah okay

Well, I was accually Thinking of removing my custom loop to go full air again. So im gonna do That. Nevermind, i do sell the 780ti also and start using my hd6990 in my main rig :-)
