144hz here i know the struggle of that :')
My other struggle is my 970 having to lower graphics to maintain that 144fps xD
But there are some people that have coil wines and some doesnt...maybe you had the bad one :s
The video petmic send from the 1080 waterforce noice im not sure if its the 1080 waterforce or 980ti because they are being released on the newegg market tomorrow so i am not sure if that video is legit 1080 or not
The problem is, it's not even 50 / 50 to get a good GPU with out a coil whine. It seem like most of the 10x0 serie GPU having this issue (if you serach on google). How ever, i have faith in EVGA i know they are really good company and their support is the best, that's why i'm here. I never had a EVGA GPU before, i'm trying to move from Asus product to EVGA.
