Do you use an original 12VHPWR cable, which came with psu ? It’s ATX 3.0, so isn’t it a risk if it’s not 12V—2x6?

I think your over thinking things slightly. So far it's all been random (look at the awful Suprims and the amazing ones etc). Just buy from a retail with a good return policy and roll the dice IMO. Rule out what you can control i.e buy a card with known quiet fans, a PSU from a reputable brand etc.

I can return my SUPRIM and shop can return money back. However
I’m not sure if it’s worth returning my SUPRIM. You probably heard my coil whine, right?

Only you can decide. The card isn't broken, it just has a bit of coil whine. If you can't live with that, then return it. If you can live with it, then keep it.

I really understand you.
I don’t know if you’ve seen my video. Would you personally keep the SUPRIM I have or not?
 
In my country, there is available only Straight Power 12 1200W. Is it the same as 1500W version? Expect power
Yes its the same ATX 3.1 version, just a bit less power. Here in the UK the 1500W was actually cheaper for some reason, hence why I got this one.

I really understand you.

Its hard to tell from video, only you can decide whether you should keep it or not. To be honest, if you are already having doubts, then it sounds like your mind is made up and you want to try another.

With my Astral, I knew from the get go that I would not tolerate that level of coil whine, so regardless of people's opinion it was going back.

Every card will have some level of coil whine, I don't for a second believe there is one that is totally silent. But there are definitely cards where its so quiet, that you really can't make it out unless you stick you head to the back of it on an open bench.

It's hard to tell from a video. There are all kinds of issues around audio-balance that mean they aren't necessarily a reflection of how the thing sounds when you're next to it.

On balance, given the video you posted, I'd probably keep the card. It's a little worse than my Palit Gamerock, but I've had worse cards for coil whine in the past. The two red-lines for me are "can hear it during normal desktop use when not wearing headphones" and "can hear it while gaming when wearing headphones (other than the odd menu/loading screen)". It doesn't seem like your card would cross either of those red-lines.
 
So, I made a better videos of my SUPRIM.
TimeSpy 270-420fps

Superposition bench 320-400fps

Speedway bench 150fps
