getting coil whine while fans are not running

[catdaddy93]

r9-390 btw

Like i do not know what to do. it only happens on certain games. I've looked up videos to make sure the noise, and its definitely coil while. but i can stop the fans and the noise still persists.

i ran furmark several times to try to recreate the noise out of game, yet the noise only blisters on certain work loads. is my card faulty?

i have checked my h100i to make sure the pump is not the culprit. but he checks out.

any ideas?

I had coilwine when I first got my 780. Especially in games like Minecraft where I sometimes were able to accumulate something in the range og 500 fps or more. This is however something I don't play anymore and last time I played it I did not have the same problem. If you have high fps in the games it happens in or sudden spikes in fps you might wanna try to limit it to either 144 fps if you have a 144hz monitor or 60 fps if you have a 60hz monitor. Hope this helps.

1 - Furmark kills GPUs via Heat and Power
2 - Coil whine happens when you get high fps in the hundreds
3 - Coil Whine is harmless

Thanks guys. i figured having freesync enabled that it would fix this problem. but i only had to set vsync and the problem fixed its self.

kinda strange.

The issue was probably you running at 200-300fps - that causes ALL GPUs to whine like crazy. Should have seen mine getting 2000fps in Crysis 1 Menu

i panicked when it started to happen. Tree of savior just released and i was in a que of 3000+ people. and i could not get to the settings until i got into the game. so my computer was screaming at me while i waited. freaking nightmare
