Curious, I slotted in the 7770 to see if it worked, it didn't.
First I tested the EVGA PSU in my old build & it powered up fine. I figured this was coil whine, mainly because it had been doing this for a long time & hadn't yet packed in.įigured it was upgrade time anyway, so bought a new case, an EVGA SuperNOVA G2 550W & a Sapphire Radeon RX 480 4GB. Meanwhile my EZ Cool PSU had been making some pretty awful noise, a loud whirring could be heard especially when under load.
