Welp, I've tried my absolute hardest to fix this issue and I for the life of me cannot fix it. I've RMA'ed my power supply 3 times, switched graphics cards and even changed my surge protector... and each and every damned time there's this annoying coil whine that happens during games. Any idea's what it could be? Is it just this model of power supply? Or am I just going to have to live with it?

Is it very loud?It all depends on the game, World Of Warcraft you can barely hear it but Warframe or other games that put load on the PSU it's very audible.
On a level,,coil whine is normal,,,but it shouldnt be so loud,,,this particular PSU may be faulty,,can u try another PSU?

Has to be the card or the PSU , one of the two.You would think, but I've swapped both.... Corsair said that they'll upgrade me to a different model if it screws up again which I might take up. I just don't understand how I could get 3 different PSU's in a row and have them be loud...

3 DIFFERENT PSU's .. that's why I'm so baffled this happened. Though this isn't my first time I would've had bad luck in computers.

''I've RMA'ed my power supply 3 times''
3 psu's and all with the same issue ??? sounds like more than bad luck
could not find the 750 tare down review but this in the 600 may be the issue in them
''all filtering caps in the secondary side are from CapXon and are rated at 105°C. We would like to see caps of a higher quality here, at least Teapo ones,''

I saw that, so gooood. My G2 750W arrived today, the only complaints I have are the warranty is really hard to register for, and the included cables are pretty bulky and were hard to plug into everything. I love how the fan doesn't spin even under heavy load in my build

Late to the party here, but I recently tried a CX750M and it had a very high pitched, irritating noise (almost like when your ears ring) from the moment I installed it (during gaming, idle - whatever). I used a paper towel tube to track the whistling/ringing sound down - definitely the power supply. Took it back within a few days and got a Cooler Master V650 Gold and its utterly silent at all times.

The CX series sucks. Seeing way too many complaints about them. Multiple every day.

Yours too Alex - that Super Flower made unit for EVGA is excellent. Mine's a fairly new model - made by Enhance for Cooler Master, but JonnyGuru rated the 750W version at 9.4 and TechPowerUp! rated the 550W version at 8.9 (with a "Highly Recommended"). Thought I'd take a chance based on those and so far so good.
