Does anyone know what can be the issue? Amazon will send me another MB but i was wondering if it could be caused by something else
Motherboard is maximus hero XI, 9900k
thanks
It could be many things. I have seen switching PSUs can make a difference. In one system I built for someone with a Seasonic Platinum 660xp2 it had quite a bit more coil whine than with a Seasonic Focus Platinium 550w.
I am not saying it is your PSU just that to narrow down what is causing it could be difficult. Sometimes turning off C states and other power saving feature in the bios can help with MB coil whine. GPUs are usually the biggest cause of coil whine in my experience.
I have a corsair rmi 850 PSU but I received today a Seasonic prime ultra platinum i will install later. Maybe that will help, at last I hope so for the price I paid for it ><
For the gpu it has coil whine too but it's a different one haha.
