I just recently RMA'd an XFX Core Edition R7850 2GB, and received a refurbished R7850 back. I'm almost certain the replacement sent out to me by XFX has severe coil whine, as it sounds like a screaming mouse mixed with a helicopter rotor while playing very demanding games and or games that I get high frame rates in. While not gaming the coil whine is at a bare minimum, I'll notice it some times while playing a video, moving around tabs, and general computing. It hasn't been 30 days yet of XFX sending the replacement card, so I'm thinking about RMA'ing it. What do you guys/girls think I should do? If you want a look at my system specifications as of now here is absolutely everything down to the bone that I am using.
