weird sound

[dani199ar]

I assembled this computer not so far ago, probably 4 months now, and the first time I played graphics demanding game I heard a sound very simimlar to the sound of a short circuit...not sure if it is the hard drive, the CPU or the GPU.

the computer and its components:

you can hear the sound very clearly at the end of the recording....I already tried to set the Graphics card fan speed to max and couldn't hear it, its only during heavy use, like cryptocurrency mining or graphically demanding games.

Took it to where I bought the parts but they said they would charge me 80$ to find the problem, or I could find them and they would send the part to be replaced if necessary, for free....

Did you try unplugging your fans/CPU fan

 

do u think it might be coil whine?

I suspect it to be coil whine, and no, RMA doesn't cover that.

 

The symptoms match: Happens during heavy load, not related to fan speed.

 

Things I'm not so sure: Tone sounds a bit lower than I expected.

I had never heard about it before, did my research and yes, it is possible, but it's more like just an on/off sound, instead of variable sound during variable loads...could it still be that?, I'm planning to unplug the case fans and then see, but one of the fans is a noctua, so I doubt it will be that, and the other two didn't make any sound when I increased the speed manually, (quick question here, speed fan doesn't recognise my MOBO, any other programs to control my case fans, i had to go to the BIOS settings of the mobo).

Do you think I could change the card saying "weird sound coming from the card, that pretty much sounds like a short circuit" it's really annoying, and because of how high in pitch the sound is, I cant sleep with the computer on, which I need to do in order to mine.....

1. Speedfan doesn't recognize my mobo as well, and that's a 3 year old system. This app is just outdated.

 

2. No. All they will do is test it themselves, find out that it's coil whine, then send it right back to you. Waste of time.

I want to rip my ears off right now, the noise it's extremely annoying
