Hello
About 2 weeks ago I bought a GTX 980 G1 Gaming and immediately noticed the horrible, horrible coil whine it produced while under any load. I contacted the seller (Ebuyer) and got it replaced under warranty
Today I received a new card, but the coil whine is still here, I can say it is actually even worse.
Is it possible that my other parts just interfere with the GTX 980?
My build:
i5-6600k w/ H100i GTX
MSI z170 Krait Gaming
16GB Corsair Vengance DDR4
250GB Samsung EVO SSD
Corsair CX 500 power supply
Fractal Design Define S
after reading some online posts, I noticed some people saying that the PSU can also be the cause of coil whine. I dont have a spare PSU to test out soo... yea...

I have the 980ti xtreme and so far this morning it's the worst coil whine I've ever heard. Gonna try an older driver. Removed an older AMD card that used much more power than the 980 ti so that's not it.
