    Coil whine
    « on: March 28, 2014, 07:40:32 PM »
    I have a GTX 560ti Vid card, And I get coil whine until I put a home fan close to my computer with side open. What causes this. My specs are listed under specs..... Thanks.

    Please define "coil whine". It sounds like you have heat problems which make me wonder if you are hearing a cooling fan working hard.

      well, I hear this sound ONLY when I play call of duty MW3 . So I think it puts a heavy load on my Vid card. But it stops when I open my case and put a regular home fan on the computer.

      Most graphics cards have cooling fans which speed up when the chips on the card work hard and get hot. This can happen when playing a game. The GTX 560ti is mentioned in reviews as a quiet card, but some users in forums have reported noisy ones. Is it a new card?

      See those 2 fans? Do you see them turning when the whine happens?
