Tried reinstalling the drivers, will try it once more before bed. GPU has coil whine, runs at about 80 Celsius after about 5 minutes of gaming, and it sounds like a jet taking off next to me. Summary: New PSU (Corsair RM750X) and a new GPU (MSI RTX DUKE 2080) inside my NZXT H500 case.

I also want to mention that I never had problems with noise from my pc before. Forgot to mention that my case is the NZXT H500, so it's not one of those compact builds that have 0 airflow. If not, I might have to return, but first I need some opinions if there is anything I can possibly do.
#HOW TO INSTALL GRAPHIC CARD ON NZXT H500 DRIVERS#
I tried reinstalling the drivers many times. I can hear it through headphones, I can hear it on the toilet, I can hear it down in Africa. It sounds like a jet taking off in my backyard. This results in a fan speed of about 65% (again, according MSI afterburner). My GPU runs at about 50 Celsius Idle (measured with MSI afterburner), and after about 5 minutes of gaming, it goes up to 78-80 Celsius. Looks like my GPU has it, it is a really weird screeching noise, but it's the least of my worries. I heard of the term 'coil whine' before, but never really had to research it until today. Let's fire up some benchmarks within games. I wanted to install fresh drivers anyway. After I booted up, the resolution was weird, same as when you re-install Windows and the drivers aren't installed yet. It has one of those cool features that you aren't really supposed to hear it, and the fans won't turn on until something like 49 Degrees Celsius? Anyway. The power supply is a Corsair RM750X, and the GPU is an MSI RTX 2080 DUKE. Along with the new GPU, I have also installed a new power supply. Installation was frustrating, however I was really careful with everything I have been doing. When I got home in the evening I decided to install my new GPU. If you want the important bit, skip to the end. Let me tell you step-by-step what happened, because I feel like letting it out of myself. It's quite late here and I had a very long day, I apologise if it comes off as a no-effort post.
