"When play the game , fan start to spin with high RPM. The noise sounds like coil whine , so I thought it was coil whine and ignore the sounds. Last night the noise got worse so check the card , and the sounds came from the LED cover. When I press the LED cover noise disappear. So it seems the fan may contact the LED cover on high RPM. For me it happen when card is under load so fan start spin. Around 70% of fan speed is makes the noise. I found the left fan makes the sound for me(to find out I have stop the fan with my finger)."
"I noticed the same issue on my 3090 Strix OC last night too.
I can replicate it 100% of the time by just turning up the fan speed with the card at idle. It seems loudest for me at about 65% and the middle fan seems to cause it more.
Pushing on the lightbar doesn't make it go away completely but does decrease the sound significantly. Unlike in your video it decreases the vibration sound when I push on the lightbar on the right hand side (power plug end) of the lightbar about a third of the way along. Pushing where you did does nothing for me.
In all other respects the card works fine it's just a ****ty design/QC."

I got the replacement today, and its completely messed up out of the box.
This is completely unacceptable, all the screws for the shroud are lose and falling out into the bag and box.
They have not even been tightened at all, its serious issue right now and takes the utter piss. I don't know if to laugh or cry. *I am officially done with Asus, my retailer have allowed me to swap to another 3090 of another brand which has no issues.

Oh my god that's horrible. That is totally unacceptable.
Does this card have the same serial that you sent in? I'm guessing they just replaced the cooler and returned it.

I never got my original card back, Asus never received it, the middle man in the UK is probably doing something fishy and reselling them on, so they gave my retailer the refund for it, so my retailer sent me that brand new card instead when the next batch came in.
So that was a brand new card, from factory. Going straight back, luckily my retailer is awesome and the Asus account manager is looking into it and also offered me a an even better card as a direct swap as this is completely unacceptable.Â*
Im officially done with Asus GPU's, I use a few other products of theirs, but these Strix cards are just an utter shambles. Â*

Which model is considered an "even better card?" Hopefully they do you right and shower you with extras.
