So I just finished building the new rig yesterday and everything seems fine boots up no driver issues yada yada but when i get into the crysis menu it makes an odd squealing sound
its not too bad and ends once in the game
Now with a powerful system i dont want anything to go to waste so i downloaded f@h gpu and cpu clients booted up the gpu one first (working for this team of course ) and what do you know the same squeal except it never goes away during the whole work unit
Now not content with odd sounds in my computer i researched what this could be and found that its not an uncommon problem with the 260gtx and not essential however while snooping around in the case with a paper towel roll i discovered that not only is it coming from the gpu (most definitely is) but also the psu. So i boot up the computer with my old seasonic 550 and hear the same noise from psu and gpu again
now is there a chance that it is echoing along the lines (I can hear it through the speakers if I turn them up) or are both at fault here?
I really want to fix this problem if it is the psu (not too expensive to worry about voiding warranty, but I also dont want to void it if I don't have to)
What does [H]ard think?
