So after I told fah to stop after the core 18 it was working on so I could play some far cry 3, it then downloaded a core 15 and that caused some hell. I got a grey screen and some massive coil whine. Louder than I have ever heard it. I rebooted and set the clocks back to stock and still had it. I know its not allowed to drop wu's but I don't feel comfortable doing the 15s with that much coil whine.



Yea my gtx 980 is almost the same. I get no coil whine on core17's, then the core15's come rolling in and its the ONLY thing that makes the cards start to produce coil whine. Core15's are also much more sensitive to overclocks. Coil whine does not harm the card at all, all it does it annoy people.

Ok, try this link out - Again, it's primitive and ugly, but it should be a functional backup of the important stats related info

glad (sort of) to hear that im not the only one with the problem
there was almost a ticking going on with the whine, almost like i could hear the power being injected into the card, i know this sounds crazy, but it was also 1am, so i may have been hearing things, and i had also just finished taking an outpost on far cry 3
 
also, the top 4 producers for mountain are doing over 80% of the total for all 11 people, i feel so insignificant with my ~1% lol

Hah, I know what you mean. You're outperforming me, though. All I've got going is my GTX 680 and my 4790K.

you know the problem with racing is, is everyone is always at least 1-4 hours behind the east coast.


That is a Good Point, Next Year Start Time Needs to be Set At 2200 Hours UTC Time.

that's a memory issue 
if your running an cpu or memory overclock look at them - this us unrelated to the cards - since it's happening on both
 
you can post the issue if you are in the beta team to the beta forum at FF
---------------------------------------------------------
 
 
on a side note the team standings aren't posting ...Ive tried a bunch of times now 
getting Div errors


Thanks,
 
Not that I have changed for the last year or so.

I am also running Numbers.

Even .1% makes a difference.

I do find it funning that Not One Core 15 has hit my GTX 780 Rig yet every other Task on my GTX 980 Rig Are Core 15.

Good way to work out coil whine is to Fold Hard and Heavy.

so i should just let the 15s be loud and not worry about it? i tend to worry about my almost $400 piece of equipment lol
i guess worst case scenario i use the advanced rma process i paid for lol
