Someone mentioned they were using a UPS that may or may not have eliminated coilwhine.

Voodoo Child a member here used a UPS and it made no difference IIRC.
sorry i should have added @Wolverine2349 as I was particularly thinking of why the same card might respond differently in two different machines.

What 4090 cards have you tried?
And have not found a quiet card yet?
I have heard good reports with Asus Hero boards and no whine 4090s.
Maybe a different PSU like eVGA SuperNOVA G2 1000.
Seemed to work at this person's house as they have a quiet Gaming OC with Asus X570 Dark Hero

Is it possible the person's house of whom I met online their l CPU was bottlenecking their 4090 even at 4k with 5950x?
GPU usage was in 90 percent or higher, bit could their be secret hidden bottleneck whetr GPU maybe not work as hard and thus less whine?

No chance dlss was on was it? Because virtually all 4090s I had had no whine with it enabled no matter the world load.

Nope was not on.
Its not worth it, its a design fault with the card. I think getting a Suprim X with no coil whine is just down to chance.

Definitely better odds now though, after the revision.
I think the one I have is particularly bad, worst cricket noise I've heard from a gpu in 20 years. Back when I was testing graphics cards, of which I would go through 200 easily, I never experienced this.

Is the serial sticker near the 12 pin or on the far left?
Sorry, I literally just packed it up and shipped it
What does the placement of the sticker mean @Hostile_18sec ill do a pic, just found one i took

Nothing concrete but newer ones that have generally been better have had the serial number on the left like yours is. Guess you were very unlucky here

@Hostile_18
What motherboard, CPU, and PSU do you have with your current very quiet and almost no whine Suprim X. And I assume the same setup with the other Suprim X cards and Gaming OC and PNY you tried as well?
PSU and yes I believe the motherboard can make a difference.

I think definately some truth to motherboard being a possible factor.
I had a freind with a 2080 Super which was whine-free when he first got it. He later swapped CPU & Motherboard, and the card started to whine.
PSU and rest of the setup stayed the same...
Problem is the variables become too much now...

B650 E-E Strix Gaming Wifi, 7600X and BeQuiet Pure Power 1200w. I think originally I had a B550 Tommahawk and a 5800x at the start of the journey.

Do you remember which mobo and CPU they swapped to? Was it possible they were CPU bottlenecked before and GPU was thus not working at full load?
And what resolution dud they game at?

Thanks very much for that info. Seeing recent reports of mid range to high end Asus motherboards on AMD Ryzen 5000 and 7000 series systems with minimal to no whine on RTX 4090s.
What resolution do you game at? And is the 7600X 6 core CPU overclocked or at stock? And is it possible 7600X is bottlenecking 4090?? Or do almost all games only use 6 cores and no more? Cause there are those that insist now that 6 cores is too thin for gaming and 8 is safe and even some niche games can benefit decently from more than 8 if you look in the 7000X3D thread.
My brother's friend from back in high school who now lives far away I have talked to them about PC building in last couple of years over phone texting. They stated they have not had coil whine on RTX 3000 series nor Founders Edition RTX 4090. And they have an AMD Ryzen 7700X they just built a few months ago and have 0 whine and I asked them the tough questions about listening closely is their room quiet and they say they are sure no whine coming from it. They have an Asus X670E-Strix Mobo which is the better chipset from yours though not sure if VRM is any different between the boards.
Its possible. They had a i5-4760k and played at 1440p ultrawide. Upgraded to a 3700x.
Bottleneck calc suggests neither is CPU limited at that res... not sure how accurate that site is though.
