Whining Gpu's Take Note

[wazza300]

Just a heads up on one thing to try regarding whining ,ive been testing all day today with a new psu and the bitfenix merc alpha case

first i tested a 5770 and could hear the whining only through the front panel headphones,swapped to a 5870 same thing,did fresh clean install of windows,same whining could be heard,switched psu,same whining could also hear

it screech when i moved the mouse pointer across the screen making me think it was gpu related

at this point in time i disconnected the front panel usb the motherboard and voila!!! as quiet as a mouse

so if your having similar issues id suggest you try this and see if it fixes things or you

p.s it looks to me that bitfenix have mounted the usb sockets to close to the headphone socket or not shielded it adequately hence the interference noise

Got any cures for a whining wife?

Move to the middle east and threaten to stone her if she doesn't get back into the kitchen

A quality headset should do the trick.

you have to find where her usb header is and pull the plug

Good answers

There is another permanent solution that costs about 10 grand. Not recommended though.

Divorce will cost you the house, the car and half your savings

But you'll have your pc and your freedom.

No I was talking about a hitman. Cheaper than a divorce and she can't **** you off to your mates anymore either.

I would go for the usb header first...
