So this is my new AORUS Xtreme Waterforce 5090. At stock settings the coil whine is noticeable above 250 fps, like a buzzing sound, so I’m using an undervolt. In the video the undervolt is applied. Through the phone it’s probably not as audible as in reality. What do you think?
Just to give an update on my recent purchase: MSI Gaming Trio OC 5090
Using silent BIOS switch, there's no coil whine, and it's impressively very low fan noise even under heavy load too.
I try to build as silent rig as best as possible, my hearing goes up to about to about 12kHz.
It's better than my MSI Gaming Trio X 3090 with silent BIOS, though I expect when GTA VI etc. come out it will start to ramp up more.

My MSI inspire OC 3x has zero coil whine but I use reflex or limit refresh to 141 when gaming. The fans do ramp up though but again I wear earphones.
I'm likely going to get a 5099 so can game with path tracing DLSS quality so really need a card that has a zero fan mode and doesn't whine when doing normal stuff in windows. I wouldn't be using headphones then. Are 5090$ generally quiet in windows.

hard to say from the video..
if you are fine with it then what would opinion of others matter?
waterblocks usually make coil wine worse
Just upgraded my Tuf 4090 OG (Not OC...OG is the smaller Tuf 4090) to a 5090 FE.
The Asus had "tolerable" coil whine. The FE has almost zero. I'm pleasantly surprised with how quiet it is.
The temps aren't great, but it's a 2-slot card dealing with almost 600w, so there's that.

Obligatory - Ensure you undervolt your 5090, especially the FE card.
I have a lazy undervolt for heavy workloads: 85% power limit, +225 core. I'm not touching the vram because stock temps are already high.

I go pretty conservative on my undervolt profiles so never experience crashing. Agree on memory temps, I haven't once touched the memory OC slider.
I run at 200-350w in most of the games I play, so the 5090 FE is just ticking along nicely. Even with 200fps in the BF6 beta i wasn't much over 300w. Seriously impressive card.

Just took delivery of the Asus 5090 White edition. I was expecting the worst coil whine wise as I haven;t had many if at all good experiences regarding coil whine with Asus high end cards. I may have got lucky and this has very very minimal coil whine. Which in my book is stupendously good for an Asus card. I had a 5090 asus black and the 5090 Lc and they were super bad for coil whine.
I like this one. Runs quieter than most of the 5090's I have and slighly lower temps. Clocking wise. Haven;t tested it yet. But have yet find a card that can go high as my white Aorus but that ran hot and loud.
***Edit***
Turns out this is a decent clocker but nothing to get excited about. It will get to roughly 3165 ish which is not too bad. But it does have the advantage of being quieter and cooler than the masters overall. But all of the masters I have own none of them had coil whine or buzzing. There is some on this but it is very minimal and like always this card is on my open test bench so you will hear everything. As far as cards go from teh Asus lineup this is the quietest 5xxx series I have owned from them. Also the masters out of the box run faster frequency wise. This is not in anyway an endorsement of the white 5090 from Asus as I know if I bought another one it might have really bad coil whine. But I do like this card a lot and it will go into my collection.
