    Posted: 26 Nov 2017 at 11:25am
So this morning I replaced my EVGA z270 / 7700k with my most wanted Asrock Taichi z370 and paired it with an 8700k. Once I got everything settled in and was happy with my OC that consists of very very acceptable voltages I begin to have some fun benchmarking and everything went great. then I  started gaming.. I am running this combo with an MSI GTX 1080ti armor and 32gb of Corsair dominator platinum 3200. and everything is cooled with a cusom loop. Prior to doing this mobo / cpu swap i experienced ZERO audio issues.. Now It seems my gpu coil whine ( which is the same amount as I had on my previous setup ) is leaking into my front and rear audio outputs.. Through speakers its not to bad but with headphones its very very very noticeable, particularly when playing PUBG. It's not so bad with less demanding games/gpu benchmarks but I feel like this shouldn't be happening  anyway considering it was a non existent issue on my last board\cpu combo. everything else is the same.. PSU/GPU/RAM/DRIVES etc etc. The only thing that changed was the mobo and cpu... The only way I can get around it is if I plug into the monitors sound output which is just terrible quality so I refuse to go that route.  ANY suggestions besides a new PSU and or GPU would be much appreciated

@Ayeohdee

Did you try gaming with none oc CPU?   Are you using afterburner app or similar to oc your gpu? Maybe try gaming without that app.   Just throwing some ideas up there....

I reset the GPU OC and keep MSI AB closed because that program tends to cause issues in more than a few instances. As far the CPU OC, if I reset to AUTO everything I still hear it.

At What frequency does your 1080i starts to coil whine?   I don't have that issue with my Asus to oc gtx1070.   Did u try different pci slots? Maybe it is flaky mobo

it whines during any "demanding" tasks ( fps games, gpu benchmarks etc.) it had coil whine on my previous motherboard aswell so this board isnt making the card worse as far as the coil whine goes, its the fact that its leaking into the audio outputs =(

Could it be bad ground? Maybe try your setup outside of your case?

I have a custom hard line loop for both gpu and cpu so thats much easier said than done. I have a new parvum case on the way so if I dont figure something out by then I will post an update when I get everything in the new case.?

Sorry bro but I cannot help you more.   If I stay with taichi I will get back to you with my experiences good or bad.   It looks like you know what you are doing. It could be just bad/faulty mobo and you are just chasing your own tail.
