It's called coil whine and happens when your GPU is trying to display like 3000+FPS
Happens on any card you buy, turn on vsnc or limit your FPS to like 300+

Vsync is on, fps is limited to 50 IIRC, and I've been underclocking it because I originally believed the problem was that it was factory overclocked
>>61182771
sell your amd card. you will have enough to buy two nvidia cards and pay off the rest of your mortgage
my fe 1080 whines even with vsync and frame limit
>>61182771
now is the time to sell that amd card friendo, take advantage on the scarcity and inflated prices while you can.
>>61182829
It's an RX 460, the only comparable are like 1060 which are multiple times the cost
>>61182824
Probably not your GPU then, maybe motherboard or PSU.
I used to have coil whine and I fixed it by simply updating drivers and restarting my pc like 10 times and it never happened again
>>61182853
I built the computer like 18 months ago, the PSU was replaced like 6 months ago, surely shit shouldn't fail this quickly. Is Gigabyte famous for this shit and I missed it, or...?
>>61182771
Nah, buy a better PSU poojeet
>>61183022
I literally did 6 months ago, along with the vidcard

>It's called coil whine
Coil whine doesn't shut down your scren.
>>61183099
Your shit is fucked then if it's not just happening when things turn black/load/whatever
