Hi. Here is my rig...
Case- Corsair Carbide 500R
Mobo- MSI G45 Z87
CPU- i5 4670k
GPU- MSI 780 ti Gaming
RAM- Gskill Ripjaw 1600 8gig
The other day I ran Unigine heaven and my PC froze and when I tried to reset it it would just show a black screen with no power message. My computer guy hit the CMOS switch on the mobo and the computer loaded into windows fine and everything works fine except now...
1. My GPU is making a whining noise that is consistent. At first I thought something happened to the GPU and packed it up for RMA but then I put in my Sapphire 7950 and it was making the same noise. If it were coil whine, it would come and go right? But this noise is always happening during any 3d Application and I think the harder the GPU works the louder the noise gets.
2. My case fans started spinning much faster and became noisy. Prior to this, these Corsair fans were dead silent even on the highest setting. My computer guy put filters on all of them to keep them from being so noisy but this way I lost control of them.
3. My PSU was an old Dell 875W PSU from my Alienware Aurora. The PSU was about 6 years old and I thought it may be the culprit here. After the CMOS reset I heard a buzzing sound coming from what I thought was the PSU. Today we switched out the old PSU for a new Seasonic 1050W Gold PSU. I still hear a buzzing noise but I think its a little bit lower and I don't think it's coming from the PSU. I think it's coming from the motherboard itself?
Please if anyone has any idea what this could be or any remedy for this I could really use some help right now Thanks
