Noise on your motherboard? The Prime B250M Plus handles it well.
Hi all. I'm new to computer builds. I recently changed from a HDD+Optane to a M2 NVME SSD. I expected that PC to become more or less silent under light loads, as I thought most the noise was from the HDD. But, less a HDD noise, there is still a noise from the PC. I don't know how to describe the noise, it just sounds like a PC working, it doesn't sound like anything is wrong. It is not very loud but I work in a quiet room so I really notice it. I have tried googling it but everything I found is about fans and HDD's. I know it is not the fans because firstly it doesn't found like fans and 2nd I turned the fans off in BIOS and it didn't make a difference. So I figure the noise must just be from capacitors or something on the motherboard. Is this normal for PC motherboards? I never notice the same sound on laptops so am confused. I can upload a recording of the sound if it helps?
