Hi , first time posting here . Iv recently build a custom pc and I just about got by doing that but now that’s it built I have no idea how to fix the problems that keep arising . So it was running fine for a few weeks then I downloaded the CAM software for kraken and installed it ( even tho the software didn’t have an option for the kraken x52 which is the one I have ) and anytime I use that my pc crashes but Iv been told that it should be compatible with it . So then I decided to just avoid the software altogether but yesterday it crashed playing PubG which hasn’t happened before so I checked the error message and it said I may need to downloaded the latest driver for my graphics card , so I did and now anytime I open PubG or CS GO after updating the driver , there is a whining noise coming from my graphics card which I don’t think was there before . I’m pretty new to this so any suggestions as to what the problems are would be gratefully appreciated . I’m not sure what other info will help you’s understand but when I open the CAM software to check it has the following :

Intel core i7-8700k - temp; 74c, load 77%, clock speed 5148mhz, fan speed 551 rpm.

CPU: NVIDIA GeForce 1080 Ti : Temp; 44c, load 1%, clock speed 139 MHz, fan speed 0%

Ram load 28% , 16GB installed

Storage: Samsung SSD 970 Evo 1TB; 154 used

Motherboard: ASUS Rog Maximus hero WiFi ac

The "whining" noise you're hearing is what's known as "coil whine". It's a relatively normal occurrence for electronics to do this. Coil whine is produced from the flow of electricity through certain components of a card which literally creates an audible noise in the form of coil whine.

Have you had any further issues since updating the drivers rather than the whine?

Before I updated the driver I could play PubG high graphics with high FPS but now it makes the noise when I open it and it crashes as soon as I go into a game and gives me a blue screen
