GA-X58A-UD3R electrical noises [solved]

[Dark Mantis]

Yes I know. It is a problem trying to capture the sound in a decent quality. As I said the first one wasn't to bad at all, it was just the second one was a bit faint. I jsut used my still camera on video setting for it when I did mine.

Just rename yourself for the games as "Gigabyte Killer" and kick some proverbial butt.  Make you feel much better.

Well the sound begins at 33 sec, that was on start up of the computer and that's why that monster sound came, its my GPU that wakes up before my manuel  fan settings kicks in   Can not rename and play like Gigabyte killer, i will be banned for life that good i am  

P.S. Did you really watch the whole second video Jerry? Sounds like you are guessing on all kind of stuff hoping that one of them are right  

[Dark Mantis]

Yes I watched it all. You didn't scare me! I am used to horror films. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNsZNbC36Nw
I also watched all of the second one but nboiticed that you got scarred yourself and made a hasty retreat. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBczTb2CRZo

Its no game in there Jerry, i got powerful stuff in there that can chop of your head. You should see my other video, my hand got stuck in one of the fans

It certainly can hurt to be fair, especiallly if you are not expecting it.

I'll keep my Motherboard with C1 disabled and stop. I hope that my cpu will not die sooner

I cannot send my motherboard in RMA....wait 15 days minimum (without pc...) and then HOPE that on the new one there will be no problems....

I see, i wont risk my components though.

OK update time, this will be my 3th time sending back. Hopefully they will have a better solution than the C1 disabled,  that is no solution in my opinion. I asked what they are planning to do and what will happen, because it is no fun time without a PC that you do home work, gaming and all stuff on. So we will see what happens next.

In fairness Gigabyte should be able to give you a complete rundown of what they plan to do to your motherboard before you have to send it off. If they have nothing to hide and the fix is legitimate then it shouldn't be a problem. Also if they arrange it properly so that they don't get one massive influx of boards to repair it shouldn't take that long for each board.

and is there a solution for people out of UK ? (I'm french and having the same problem.. )

Not yet as first I want to have it tested in UK first. After we do it then I will try to check about it and contact you.

Hi foks

I sent my MB for RMA in NL, (...) they replace the MB with a new MB (not new in those terms, just  another one from there stock) that they had tested and good to go, no electric high pitch noise on this one. I had it installed in my system now and guess what? Yeees the noise is still there. (...)

As far as I know only UK RMA is aware of the rework procedure so probably that's the reason. You are in the same situation like Brzhk from France.

Hello runn3R

Lets make a deal, if you guys sponsor me with U9 MB i will play with a logo sponsored by Gigabyte  

Yes Jerry like always you are a wise man  

They asked me to test the MB with a different PSU, and i did and here is the video on that for those who wanna see it. I did this test before i posted on this forum so i knew already that it was no PSU issue.

P.S. I just wanna say i´m not the camera man.

[Dark Mantis]

Well no real difference from the last time. The same coil whine is there and I wouldn't even say it had changed at all with the new PSU.

Has runn3R offered you the deal on the UD9 yet? 

[GreenMagic]

He is probably fixing with the paper works now

Of course

GreenMagic - I suggest not to send your MB to NL RMA yet. First I need to set it up with them and make sure they have exactly the same procedure of rework. I will inform you when done.

Hello!
Having the same problem with the squealing =(
I bought a Rev 1.0 UD3R, than RMA'd it and got rev 2.0 and still had the same problem with the squealing. I tried different PSU's but nothing helped.
So i sent it back again... later got some guy raging at me that it is my fault and i'm doing something wrong, but agreed to order another board for me (hope it will be rev 2 again, don't want 1.0).
However, i think i'll have the same problem with the next mobo and i dunno what to do, i believe i won't get another after this, 4-th MB =). And i don't have any other options other than Gigabyte. Asus is too expensive, MSI is kinda lame...

I'm stuck, and i can't upgrade to UD5, cuz it's the same there too, from what i read on the net =)).

PS The second motherboard had the usual squeeling from the board itself, and it also had the exact same sound from the headphones, that's some nasty stuff... can drive you nuts =)

Well runn3R posted an invitation to anyone(in the UK and IRL) that has trouble with their board to have it reworked as they have a hardware fix but as far as I am aware there have been about three people who have taken the opportunity. I really cna't understand this after all the fuss about this squealing and then nobody is interested. Strange!

As for your board because you are in Israel I am afraid tha it might taske a bit longer before the fix is proven and reaches you.
