Hi, I recetly bought a new pre-built pc and for most time it's was good. It has coil whine and from my understanding it's inevitable for most of pc but recently I started to hear a different noise when pc under load like; In tokyo ghostwire in closed areas when fps reach 120 plus it's start to make that noise whenever i move my mouse or In Path of exile the moment game starts it's making this noise As you see in begining of video there is coil whine but with that there is some screcing noise. Is this normal , should i worry ? AMD Ryzen 5 5600X ASUS PRIME B550M-K 4600MHz(OC) ASUS Radeon ROG RX 6800 ADATA XPG Spectrix D41 TUF RGB 16GB Dual channel WD SN570 500GB Blue GEN3X4 M.2 SSD ASUS TUF GAMING GT301 ASUS TUF GAMING 750B 750W 80+ Bronze 135m m

The popping noise is from somewhere else than PC? Hard to tell if there is something else than coil whine imo

Hi, I see you're dealing with a strange popping sound that occurred twice. It sounds like your phone touched the case, which might have caused it. Since you're having trouble describing it, you could try recording the sound using your phone's audio feature or a smartphone app. This way you'll have a clearer capture to analyze. Also, check if the sound happens in specific situations or locations to narrow down the source.

It resembles a faint hum, but it's hard to confirm. Maybe another person sees it more clearly.

It seems like the pump is making a lot of noise. Check the CPU temperature to see if it’s beyond the usual range.

I'm not relying on AIO, it's a tower-style cooler (ID-COOLING SE-214-XT ARGB). The temperature stays normal, just like usual. I've noticed some noise recently—about three days ago, I started hearing a coil whine sound.

Verify that the fans on the air-cooled CPU block are securely fastened if it isn't an AIO.

I've verified everything and confirmed it's fine, though the result remains unsatisfactory. I'm hoping it's not a serious issue like a failing PSU or other problems, since the grinding noise persists even under heavy use.
