I've tried a bunch of BIOS versions, including the latest 1616, and the problem remains.
The only way I've found to stop the noise on my 7950x was to set a fixed CPU Core voltage (in my case, to 1.2v, and I've also set the Core Ratio to 52).
That's an out-of-touch response, specially for a mod.If the solution for coil whine that is only/mainly present in Asus motherboards is "Just buy a 400€ PSU bro!", then....Also, the question is not if it is something to "worry about". It's the noise ...
I've installed the latest bios driver (Version 1405) and the problem remains.The only way to stop the coil whine was to set the CPU Core Voltage to specific value (tried 1.2 and 1.3). However this has a negative performance impact.Also tried setting ...
@Silent_Scone You can see my specs on my first post. I have no GPU and a platinum PSU which is not the source of the coil whine. The rapid change in load doesn't apply either since this happens when the system is idle.
@hollywood Could you clarify your comment please?I've tried setting "CPU SOC Voltage" to 1.25v but that didn't help.Or are you talking about CPU Core Voltage?
