Hello. I would be interested to see other links / users with the same issue with this particular X370 board as I found very little information. Can you share some links?

Thanks.

On the first search I found this:
 
https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/63y9wv/x370_taichi_electrical_noise/

http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5314&title=electricity-noise-on-x370-taichi

On my local language forum some users also have it. There was a couple of discussion on this forum too.


Oh yes. I had read those threads prior. Thanks.

hot glue =

its a stick of glue you shove in a heating gun and it squirts out the end runny and sets hard

quite handy for dads with kids Smile

what wardog suggests is to squirt a bit around the base to stop any undue resonance

Hello Again

I have no experience with the hot glue method and a little apprehensive to start "drop it like it's hot"......

@Ivan, tried both. Having both disabled made my CPU go full load during Idle at random times which made it slow down. I have since re-enabled Q&C and left C6 off.

I may just keep things as they are for 6 months and upgrade the mobo and CPU next year during the Zen refresh.

Cheers.

Disable C6 glob states in bios.
If not help also disable qool&quiet.

Good point Datonyb, if the PSU is operating below it's efficiency curve it could be causing issues. All PSUs operate best in a band between their rating and, well, off. If you are over or under that band you loose efficiency and potentially pick up ripple etc. 

That said, we don't know the full system specs. An easy way to test if it is under the efficiency band would be to add some extra hardware to the system, more HDDs, fans etc and see if the added load kills the whine.

If you do go the hot glue route, don't tell us here in-case you ever need to RMA again Wink

not nit picking here but

you can also have too large a psu

the power draw can be too low on it causing it to run well out of its efficiancy band

i vote for wardogs solution

a hot glue gun is actually a good call

Thanks everyone for the reply. I very much appreciate it.

I have one if not the best PSU on the market. Seasonic Prime Titanium 1000W. I can try another (my older) PSU over the weekend.

This is also the first time I have had a motherboard die within a few months of ownership in all my years of building.

I have a Kraken X62, Phanteks case, 6 x Noctua fans, cooling is more than sufficient.

I have a very quiet PC and yes I sit next to it so it is easy to hear the noise.

I use fixed vcore @ 1.375v @ 4GHz. I ran also at stock and the noise is there.

I'm using an 8-pin power cable connector for the mobo.
