[rome87]

Hi im wondering if someone could help me ?

Im getting a weird faint buzzing noise coming from my p35-DQ6 mobo it gets louder when underload anyone know why ?

these are my specs
520watt corsair psu
q6600 cpu
8800gtx

If it's the board buzzing (see thread...
DQ6 has buzzing inductor coil

You are going to have a job stopping it if it's the board itself.

Rule out all your other compenents first tho, but some boards do buzz

Could be a capacitor somewhere - I had a cap in a PSU once that used to whistle higher as the system pulled more power from the supply, caused interference lines on the monitor as well...

Hi again ive been looking where the noise is coming from so ive changed the grapics card from the 8800GTx to the 7900GTO the noise is still there but not as bad with the 8800GTx is it possible that the noise is being caused by the power hungry 8800GTx drawing extra power from the mobo ?

The noise goes like this faint buzz and then a break and then then starts buzzing again its not loud but just annoying.
