So I'm planning to buy a 1080, an hybrid/ AIO model to be exact. Therefore it's either going to be either EVGA's Hybrid, Corsair's Sea hawk X or Gigabyte's (not likely though).
Now it's just a matter of deciding. The Corsair lands at 973 USD in Sweden (with swedish taxes) and there's no current price for EVGA's other than the 730 on the product page. So i wonder is that with any taxes or without? Also Have any of you guys been noticing coil whine on any of the cards mentioned? One guy on another forum said that he had gotten quite a lot of it from a 1070 version of the Sea hawk.
Would EVGA accept a return if their card had an unusual amount of coil whine?
Cheers,
Absolutely no coil whine with my 1080 Sea Hawk.
Maybe on the 1080 or you just got lucky. I had to return my second 1070 Sea Hawk, sure when the chassi is closed the noise become minimal but it's still there. For someone sensitive like me i hate this noise, other wise i love the black design of sea hawk and it makes me sad that my second card was a failure. I may give it a 3rd try but this time go with the 1080 :(
BTW my psu is Corsair RM850x, can it cause the coil whine problem? I rent my friend g1 980ti and run it with this PSU, it had no coil whine att all even in 1000+ FPS.
