Got my gigabyte fury today and as luck would have it its one of the whiny ones. And Jesus Christ is it annoying. Even with headphones on its clearly audible, its just one of those pitches that seems to pierce everything and get incredibly annoying in a short space of time.

All the dogs in my neighbourhood are howling now

Is that at high FPS?

Around 30 ish in valley. The video doesn't do that great of a job of conveying it, the load sound is exactly the same as the idle sound, the pitch doesn't change at all, just a constant whine regardless of whats going on.

That might be the pump, its very high pitched and your sound recording device might not be to good at picking the frequency up, but it is there and i can hear it. its horrible

Aww man, I feel for ya. I'd hate getting a nice new shiny graphics card, and for it to be whiny like that.

Hope you get it sorted.

You going to open it up and see whether you got the crap stickered cooler or the better (allegedly) engraved cooler?

Mei · 7 Jul 2015 at 17:13

allegedly might be right
if you look at videos of coolermaster seidon you will hear the pump noise
they did a version 2 that still has pump noise tho lol

i wouldnt bother open it up dont give them a reason not to accept the return

Check the pump see if it's the sticker or embossed.

I don't actually have an allen key small enough to take the panel off, looks to be a really dinky size =/

RavenXXX2 · 7 Jul 2015 at 17:17

I couldn't be done with that, to think ocuk are knocking back RMAs for it.

I don't think they can now since amd announced it would be working with board partners to replace the units. Statement on the front page of hardocp.

Depressing. It's all depressingly negative. Ofcourse some might argue there are people out there enjoying their cards. And to those 15 people I say good for you

i have, or rather had a Seidon 120V Rev-1, its now back with CoolerMaster as the pump ceased, it was silent when it was working. i hope the replacement they send me is.

Mei · 7 Jul 2015 at 17:28

Gerard · 7 Jul 2015 at 17:28
