Whenever I open an application that is in need of demanding power, e.g a game, the VRMs on my motherboard keep buzzing until the application is closed.
I have ran a few stability tests (prim95 - large FFT test, and Burn in on Furmark) it finished without any problems. I ran them for over 7hours, and the entire time there was buzzing.
So, I'm guessing that for now it's fine since it ran 7+hours whilst buzzing but surely this can't be right, can it? Although, I've had this problem for a few weeks now.
I haven't overclocked anything.
Is it time for a new motherboard, or possibly CPU(Maybe PSU because of the voltages but I doubt it's that)?
i5-2500 @ 3.6GHz
12GB DDR3 @ 1333Mhz
XFX 850W Silver
