Hi i have a CM pro gold 600 and i get some coil whine almost all the time and the pitch doesnt change no matter what i do.. I game its the same noise i am browsing same noise again. Its not constant its just for a split second and then again and again. It really worries because the sound is so close to a short circuit sound you know the sound that a device makes right before it gets destroyed. Sometimes the sound just stops sometimes it goes on for days. I have a 3570K OC @4.2Ghz a sapphire 7950 factory OC 8 GB RAM an ssd and an hdd i dont think its getting stressed from that kind of hardware. Please tell me what to do im really worried

Cooler Master for the most part , doesn't have to many good power supplies.
The whine can get louder because of the overclocking.

LOOK into replacing it soon , with a Seasonic , XFX , Antec , PCPOWER , or Rosewill Capstone Series.

Ok so if i am going to change it, it will be on Christmas and my bugdet is around 120 euros. i cant get the one you wrote there for 120 from a greek vendor. I am from Greece btw. So why is my gold rated power supply that bad and do i need to spend another 100 euros in just a year. Only the PSU's you wrote are worth it??

so i am between the SEASONIC S12II-620 BRONZE and the ANTEC High Current Ganer-620M at the same price. Which one is better for a 7950 factory oc and a 3570K @ 4.2 Ghz. Oh and is the 120 euro ANTEC EA-650 PLATINUM 650W worth it?

ok so now im down to the 620M and the corsair GS700W 2013 edition. By the way im really dissapointed i mean its still a premium PSU from coolermaster it has OVP / UVP / OCP / OPP / OTP / SCP protections which are more than the two im thinking of buying right now and its gold rated than bronze so isnt it like a downgrade?
