Hey there, I'm just starting out with my first PC about two months ago. Everything looked good at first, but then I started hearing strange sounds after running it for a while—especially when using Valorant and large text files. The noise was pretty loud compared to what I expected. I've checked the back of the motherboard, but it seems to be there. Should I ask ASUS for a replacement, or could it be something else?

You can check the manufacturer's website for any GPU updates. A firmware update might be available, but excessive coil whine often means the issue is common. Some brands may replace affected units if the problem is severe, though this isn't guaranteed. If you purchased it locally, a nearby shop could test it and offer assistance due to better return options.

Sure, let me take a look at what I can accomplish with the GPU.

A few titles push the GPU harder, especially during menus or load screens, often causing high frame rates. Some games also put extra strain on other parts of the system, making certain experiences less smooth.
