I’ll do the RMA afterall, like you proposed. The coil noise is very specific to certain applications and in windows it runs cool and silent like one would expect and like i am used to. however in games it’s not bearable without software limitation. I can still hear the buzz trough headphones after software limitation if i use a volume setting i am comfortable with (louder = a no go)

I am reluctant to send it because it is the holiday season and i really don’t want to use the old gpu because it’s age is really showing on performance and stability but i’ll do it nontheless.
