Hi there, before I start I'll tell you the GPU: MSI GAMING X RX 480 8GB
https://instaud.io/Uvv there is a recording, make sure to have your audio high up. The high pitched noise comes from GPU and starts when I open up a game, any game - but just a game, I tried opening discord, and it was fine. As soon as I close the game it makes no noise. I've also noticed, quite weirdly, in CS:GO, when I move the cursor up, down left or right, it makes a sound... like, don't know you if understand what I mean, but a noise from that place? Like if I put it up it's high, low it's low, right it's a 'right' noise, left it's a 'left noise'. Is it worth getting a new one? RMAing it? If it permits a RMA then how would I go about doing that? Is it just the card itself or all cards that have this problem.
Okay onto the second problem. In the video, you'll hear a groaning/scraping noise. That's the harddrive. I installed CrystalDiskInfo and it tells me it's good, also don't know if it matters but it's been on for 7657 hours. The more intensive a program the louder it is, and it sometimes does it in a sort of rythymn. Like GroaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN -STOP- GroaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNN - stop. Please help me XD Would getting a new harddrive stop this? I understand that SSDs have no moving parts so to me that means no noise, but I definitely cannot afford a 1tb SSD/m.2 right now, nevermind a 2tb to replace my current HDD.
Oh I'll also squeeze on last question in here - what does the orange light on my mobo that stays then blinks then stays and so on, mean? It's on the ethernet cable part of my mobo's IO, and it also has a red light constantly on. My mobo is MSI z170A-SLI. Is this just - normal?
