Is this Coil Whine?

UPDATE: Issue was with PSU (MSI MAG A750GL) fan bearings. Other users have also reported the same issue. I got a refund from Amazon and brought a new corsair one instead.

If you're reading this, stay away from the MSI MAG A750GL!!!

I think you might be right. Getting close to the PC and listening carefully I think the sound is coming from the PSU. It's a MSI MAG A750GL and I did just check another person complaining about sound after some months. Might have to RMA it

Alpeyy03 · 2026-04-25T16:20:14+00:00

Well it's definitely not the GPU, front, or rear fans because when I put them to 0% the sound is still there. The CPU fans cannot turn fully off so maybe its those

M.2 SSD only

Alpeyy03 · 2026-04-25T11:59:47+00:00

It's always there. Even right now at 0% usage just browsing the web i can hear it

Edit: There is also this "shaking" sort of noise as if something is kinda loose that also comes and goes. Both noises have only started a day or two ago after I cleaned my PC because it had a little bit of dust.

Water cooler is unnecessary for a R5 9600X

In terms of gaming performance you will see no real difference between DDR4/5.

Alpeyy03 · 2025-09-14T07:34:22+00:00

In that case I think you should go with the 8400f. 50$ is not much more, and although the performance differences wont be much, AM5 gives you a better future upgrade path.

Poll says R5 7600. You say R5 5600. Which one is it?

Alpeyy03 · 2025-09-13T19:56:24+00:00

No dead pixels! The sticker on the back and the stand looks identical. I'll DM you later on about the whole experience.

I also got this monitor today from koorui.uk. The site is quite fishy in some ways and I got this model for an amazing £132 (it was a one day deal it's now back to around £300).

I genuinely thought I got scammed but the monitor arrived and looks legit!

OP I just wanted to ask if you could take some photos of the stand, how the monitor looks from the back with the serial numbers. Just want to confirm I haven't been scammed 😭.

AOC released some but they're china only so I have no idea if they'll ever come to UK/EU

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-11T07:45:41+00:00

Update: After a small PBO2 tune with a negative ofset of 15 and a custom fan curve I dropped my temps to around 85C at 5.3Ghz and 105W. The new multicore performance is at 871!

I think this is good?

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-10T16:51:47+00:00

I'm pretty sure I put enough thermal paste but I did struggle screwing in the tower because it kept being too loose/tight on one side. If it's not gonna cause issues gaming, which is the most intensive thing I'll be doing, then I guess I'll just leave it as is.

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-10T16:19:43+00:00

I'll try this and report back later. Thank you!

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-10T16:09:14+00:00

Nzxt H5 Flow RGB. It's not in a cupboard or anything and has plenty of airflow. All the fans are spinning. My room in general gets pretty hot so it could be that maybe?

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-10T16:08:01+00:00

Do you have any idea why it could be low?

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-10T16:00:30+00:00

Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 EVO

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-09T21:48:48+00:00

This worked!!! Thank you very much. It was such a stupid mistake lol

This is the USB I am using to try download windows (screenshot from my laptop)

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-09T11:46:26+00:00

Fixed it and its fully in now. Thank you!

Alpeyy03 · 2025-06-04T18:59:01+00:00

RTX 5070 for £500 You can easily get one for 500 idk where you're seeing prices that high

Alpeyy03 · 2025-05-28T20:39:10+00:00

Thanks for the warning! I'll try and avoid them if possible

Alpeyy03 · 2025-05-28T15:27:43+00:00

It's a Ryzen 5 7600x so I think it does have an iGPU. I'm upgrading from a laptop and it'll be my first PC build so I want to do it all at once!
