Update #2 : Replaced for MSI RX 6800 XT Gaming Z Trio - small coil whine, that can be limited even further by undervolting. So that (on video) was pure XFX issue. Do not buy from company, that doesnt list "coil whine" as a reason for RMA. Gigabyte, MSI, ASUS (yes, even ASUS!) all accepted RMA made by me, or which I assisted. Since 2014. If XFX is dodging responsibility, they done something to make those cards cheaper and its probably resulting with coil whine.
I was looking to upgrade from a gtx 1080 and settled on getting a rx 6800, and the xfx caught my eye price wise. Found your video and it made me re-consider, but I kept looking. Then I found an msi gaming trio z 6800 for a good price, and I just ordered it. Thank you so much for helping me avoid a potential headache. Liked and subscribed!
I got mine and it also screamed a lot. Changed the my PSU from a CX650M with a RM850X connecting 2 individuals PCI cables and no more coil whine. Works like a charm.
I just sold a 6600XT Red Dvil for $180 and bought a $200 6month old XFX 6750XT Quick RX-675XYJFDP version for my son's PC. I have a Seasonic FOCUS GM-750 Gold power supply powering it. I did notice the coil whine right away before my cap was in place. But luckily it is not too bad with my FPS cap always set to 162 in either AMD driver or RivaTuner. With no cap easy to run games like L4D2 was hitting almost 300fps and is far more noticeable. Dropping my cap to the usual 162 is enough coil whine reduction that I don't think it will bother me. Even capping it down to 60fps I could still hear the whine. It's still there but inaudible unless I put my ear to the front of the case. I just hope my OCD doesn't notice it at my own desk since his PC is in the office with mine. I wouldn't be too happy if I bought it new for $350 but used at $200 and barely noticeable I think I will be fine. Too bad the card is so big or I could just put it in a Media PC that only runs 60fps vsync as the TV is a basic 4k with only 60hz. Certainly would not want to run this at 240hz+. I just leave my 162 cap enabled in both AMD driver and RivaTuner in case RT isn't running. That way 162 is always set to maintain Freesync sync as setting it to 165 the FPS does spike up 1 or 2 at times. 162 gives me enough buffer range for the 1 or 2 spikes so the monitor and GPU stay always in the proper smooth sync. I have a bunch of AMD GPU's in service at the house and between Gigabyte Gaming OC and Eagle 6700XT, Powercolor 6600XT Red Dev, Asus TUF 6900XT I have not noticed coil whine. Pretty sure this new to me XFX 6750XT is the only card that has this. Thanks for the heads up, hopefully your situation has been resolved with a quiet card replacement or simply a new card all together.
I already replaced that card for MSI 6800XT Gaming Z Trio, it didint whines at all, after few months started, but undervolting it to 2250Mhz/1050Mv, -4 power Limit is making it quiet.
@@vlad_8011 I will certainly keep this in mind for future gpu purchases. I’m sure many different brands have this issue at times so maybe I will do a quick google of coil whine and the model number to see if there is a known issue like there is with these XFX versions of 6000 series.
XFX RX 6900 XT reporting: I had severely loud coil wine in the beginning. Few months later it is really quiet, and, in some games, it is no longer present. I didn't do anything. I also have XFX RX 6700 XT (same Lian Li case lol) in my 2nd system and there's coil whine there too, but it is really faint.
One day before buying this GPU for my first PC build I found your video and noticed that the one I wanted to buy has the exact same "Part. No." as your card. Now I am happily deciding between Sapphire and Asus. Thank you for warning.
I can recommend ASUS TUF or MSI Gaming X or Z. That's least whining cards from what I know. If you will plan to swap fans on GPU then you should choose MSI, as it have fan header for cheap 4pin pwm fan adapter - then all standard fans will work with it (also got video for swapping fans). On ASUS it's bit harder as they use some 7pin headers, and many adapter fails to work. In the other hand, RTX 3000 TUF is not equal 6800XT TUF, and Asus used strix cooler and fans on AMD card, just fan shroud is from Tuf there.
@@MonesahBuson it's amazing GPU, 1440p 80+ fps everything maxed out in every game I played so far, but tbh it can be pretty loud during heavy load. I can't hear it while wearing headphones and I have PC on my desk like 30 cm away from me, but it is definitely not a silent GPU (but also not something terribly loud).
That's so unacceptable. These companies charging so much for GPUs that we cannot even afford and you get this. What scumbags. I hope other models of the 6800xt are ok. I am soon to get a custom PC.
IMPORTANT! - I experienced the exact same issue as shown with the exact same card ... my coil whine was 1,000% worse than what is shown here. I was using a Corsair HX 750 in known good working order ... nothing I did made any difference UNTIL I UPGRADED TO A CORSAIR RM1000x and ALL COIL WHINE WAS 100% ELIMINATED! The problem is NOT with the card, the coil whine is caused 100% by the Power Supply. It is my opinion that Upgrading to a more powerful PSU will resolve ALL Coil Whine in 100% of these cases. The coil whine I experienced was many, many, many times worse than anything I heard here or anything I heard other people were experiencing and 100% of my coil whine was COMPLETELY 100% ELIMINATED! ... Hope this helps!
Well, be aware that microphone on video didint catch all the sound - it was hearable in whole room, even with doors closed and outside. I also tested 5 PSU's, including the one you mention. Everything is sayed in the video.
I feel your pain.. I had a Asus TUF 6800xt which squealed like a pig. After returning and purchasing a XFX 6800xt merc my luck didn't turn around.. it just went up in smoke when I turned on the pc.. shorted out, said "poof" while smoke rose from my pc and a little flame was visible inside the cooler.
I got a 6900xt merc, the coil whine can be pretty loud, can't hear it with headphones on at all though, even if there is no sound going through the headphones, and as long as you play at a decent volume on speakers you can't really hear it so it doesn't bother me too much
Imagine how much the situation sucks for me, because for special compatibility reasons a new generation 7800 XT or such is not an option, and I guess there is a reason why these old-generation cards are still on the market for regular price while the arguably better brands are offered only with insane markups. So I have to take the gamble, if it even is a gamble and not just an almost guaranteed repackaged return product. - At least I picked a vendor that should make no trouble with sending back for this issue, if I have it and cannot mitigate it. Still an ugly situation, but the brands known for not having this issue are both not available for sane price or at all and I also kinda despise them for their business policies. - And I hear the Powercolor tend to have coil noise, too. Also, had I heard about this earlier when the model line was still the latest one, it probably wouldn't have helped much, because at that time there was still general GPU price madness. Wish me luck!
Unfortunately, I just received this card of the same batch (WXV...) and I have the same exact coil whine. Same whine at 60 fps and same whine at 30 fps. Undervolting did not help, it is clearly a bad batch probably with cheap capacitor and/or inductors. Thanks for making theses videos, they really do help, and I wish I found them before I made my purchase.
@@GlamorousR haha too late, just bought the 6700 rog version from Asus, it Will replace a 6950 1gb from asus (which died last year) and the one I am using, another 6950 from.. Xfx... XD
It looks like all brands have some coil whine issues. Many of the reviews of the PowerColor Red Dragon mention lots of coil whine. Some people say it goes away after some use and that it's not a defect. I just bought this card, hopefully I don't have any issues.
You think that’s loud? My Asus 3080 Strix sounds at least 10x-20x louder. I can hear it through my headphones and outside of my room. I’ve tried 3 of the Strix already and the same loud whine. Undervolt and FPS limit did not help. Only solution is to open it up and insulate the coils/inductors with thermal putty or superglue.
And lose warranty (in case of XFX). You can't insolate coils that XFX have - these are already insolated and you have no access to inside of the coil. Many people were trying and failed. Specially folks mounting water block, which is pushing on coils with termopads - it's isn't helping. But I understand - had exacly like you said with R9 270 oc windforce from Gigabyte years ago - it was same loud - room next to me, it was still hearable. I sent it over RMA to LOCAL SHOP where I bought it. They glued the coils - card was quiet till 500FPS. But on XFX coils are pushed already with termopads. I tried to squeeze it even more on video. It's bad construction of coil INSIDE, where you dont have access. But here, on this XFX on video, it's different sound, camera, microphone won't catch it. It's like wasp was inside PC but very, very big wasp. I was able to hear it next to closed doors.
z mojego doswiadczenia moge powiedzieć że najpewniejsze karty od AMD to Sapphire potem Powercolor i MSI. MSI miałem 6800XT też miał lekkiego coilwhine ale bardzo cichego akceptowalnego i raczej na wysokim FPS powyzej 150.. Wcześniej miewałem poprzednie serie Sapphire i były ciche bez coilwhine. Obecnie najbardziej mnie interesuje Powercolor Hellhound z 7800XT, 7900XT , XTX - raczej dobre opinie i twierdzą że brak coil whine (czyli tego efektu). Fajnie że wrzuciłem film. Dużo promocji na XFX w BlackFriday.
To cewki i nie ma znaczenia jaki producent. Powiem Ci na swoim przykładzie. Miałem u siebie RX 6700XT od msi, red devil od pc, sepphire i asrocka challenger i to właśnie najtańszy asrock miał najcichsze(chociaż dalej głośne pod obciążeniem) cewki. Morał z tego taki, że na piszczące cewki możesz trafić i w ROGu i w najtańszej karcie. Nie ma reguły 🤷♂
@@Krzysztof_S racja, tak po prostu tylko mowie ze ten powercolor na roznych stronach pisza ze nic nie ma a tez jest :) generalizujac to sapphire mam najwieksze zaufanie w tej kwestii.. Ale wracajac do tego co napisałeś.. No pół biedy jak nie są aż tak masakrycznie głośne , wtedy często jeśli gra nie jest mega wymagająca to mamy zapas FPS i tak. I u mnie naprzyklad 120hz monitor po prostu robie sobie locka na 120fps wtedy pradu pobor na gpu spada i przy 160-170W jest cisza , 210-220 cośtam słychać ale prawie nic, w sumie tylko na tym max 270W i tak w sumie od 240W zaczyna sie
@@tommyrunner z tym co ludzie piszą w internecie to wiesz jak jest. Wrzuć w YT powercolor coil whine to zobaczysz jak wygląda to naprawdę ;). Reszta jak mówisz. FPS cap, słuchawki na uszy i jakoś da się żyć. Po gwarancji najwyżej podleje cewki super glue i jakoś będzie
@@tommyrunner Widzę, że ile ludzi tyle opinii, ja właśnie MSI, Powercolor i Sapphire trochę niżej oceniam, MSI ma kiepską politykę posprzedażową, Sapphire kiedyś miał problemy z coolerami, a Powercolor swojego czasu były najtańszymi niereferencyjnymi modelami, które miały słabe osiągi, ale pewnie żyję przeszłością i co generacje producenci się przeskakują, pewnie tylko Asus stoi na topce ciągle. Cewki u mnie piszczą jak mam właśnie więcej FPS, np. powyżej 150.
note that coil whining comes in different multiple sources, some GPU capacitors reacts differently on capacitors that is inside the PSU , hell some gpu's coil whines in some specific scene/location in some games, that is why coil whining is not being accepted as RMA..... you have a better chance getting hit by lightning than getting 3 faulty GPU's.... the GPU's caps probably behaves that way because of your PSU.... hope this information helps.
I have UPS. I tested it on multiple PSUs. It's the GPU, 100%. Somehow XFX Merc Black (also 6800 xt), MSI gaming X (1080Ti, 6800XT), Asus TUF (RTX 3080) was not whining. Sound also come from one place. I checked it with paper tube. PSU is dead silent. As I say in video, I have lost month for testing those 3 cards.
I believe all XFX 6800XT are like that. I got mine yesterday and it squeals horribly. When playing high-refresh games I can hear the graphics card whine from another room with the door closed. I'm returning it in a couple of days.
Not all, but lots of them. It depends which coils were used on production. MSI and Asus are known for being silent. However in high FPS games there aren't many cards that don't whine - you have to be very lucky to get one. If it whine as you describe it, that's exactly what I had with this XFX, three times in the row. But xfx Black Merc and gaming z trio from MSI are very silent (no more produced xfx Merc Black edition didn't had coil whine at all FPS, even 144). You can try even on used market, with trying card at seller PC. I had xfx black, guy told me he won't ship it, but he will deliver it personally. He drove half of Poland to do this. This card was taken care with best user I ever seen. I am very mad at myself I sold it (just to try RTX 3080).
From what I heard, with *high usage* overtime, coil whine will disappear eventually. The guy also said to put the card on *full load* for about 2 weeks then check it out. I can't verify this however as I haven't tried myself.
Yes, i heard that story many times too. But in this case its not worth the time and energy bill (and heating the room). First, there is exacly 2 weeks for return in Europe (Poland), second - energy cost is rising. Third - you would need to leave PC on for 24 hours per day for 2 weeks, which is a bit risky, if some storm arrives (i've lost 2 TV's like that ;( ). So i decided to full load for 2 days. Imagine small metal box, with copper wire inside, which is vibrating. If you got coil whine, that metal wire is making that noise. If there is no filling of metal case (of the coil), like resin there is near zero % chance it will go away after. Faster you will get used to it. Also there is more chance that quiet card will get coil whine later, as this copper wire will make a gap in resin (or any other filling) and start "scratching" noise. XFX, for my understanding, used coils without filling in this batch. But funny thing, i replaced PSU lastly, my MSI Gaming Z Trio also started to get coil whine after 3-4 months on stock settings (which are actually factory OC), but new PSU made that coil whining go. This is much more funny, if we take in account i have tested 5 PSU's on those XFX cards, which mean, nothing more than bad batch. Some PSU's may use.... (i'm not electrician, so noob alert) smoother voltage on some specific range ( for example 3-12V) and not cause this wire to vibrate on specific frequency.
Little update here : with RDNA 3 (new gen GPU) XFX decided to try again their luck, and they are doing exac thing with 7900 XT & 7900 XTX. Be aware what you choose, check carefully name in shop, compare SKU (part no.) With those from XFX page (if you decide to go with BLACK version) and ofc prepare extra 50 USD, as Black is 50 USD more expensive (at least with XT variant)
@@TRYno397 these also came with 2 variants - Core and Black. Hard to tell in how much examples Black had coil whine, but it's again separating better and worse product.
I have a 7900XT Merc and it has a massive HotSpot issue. Because of that it´s very loud and throttles Resseler and XFX are saying 105 degree hotspot is okay even 110 is fine. (core temp is around 55 degree) Resseler doesn´t want to open an RMA, also do not allow me to repaste the GPU without loosing the warranty. DON`T BUY ANY XFX Card, they are just cheap shit.
@@simracer7468 Agree - XFX support is one of worst. You have clearly bad thermal compund spread if core is 55, and its clearly valid reason for RMA. If they not want to respect it, just return it with no reason to shop (if you have that option). If you dont have that option, repaste the card - their support mean nothing as you can see (so is warranty).
Coil whine is caused by using only one rail on the power supply for the two 8 pin PCIe connectors. The two 8 pin connectors need to be on separate 12v rails from your PSU. One rail/cable splitting to two 8 pin connectors, and you get coil whine. The more power hungry the card, the more coil whine when using only one rail. The Merc has higher factory OC than the Trio, so the coil whine is worse.
OC was THE SAME (2450Mhz/1150mv). I tried 5 PSU's and UPS system. Im not sure if the MERC even had lower clock by 100Mhz. Coil whine was constant upon OC/UV, with 30 FPS LOCK! It all in video.
Mine 6800 XT gaming Z Trio just started to whine yesterday - on 2300mhz/1100mv :( . It's not as loud as XFX, but still hearable. Same sound as XFX but quieter. Right now I'm starting to believe all Radeons will have that sooner or later. What's worse, I loosed silicon lottery and it won't go under 1100mv.
@@vlad_8011 sorry to hear that, my undervolted to 1030mV with 2400-2500 and from coil whine i hear just a little hissing, it's waaay quieter than stock
They are around 540 UK from a seller on amazon uk right now. This might be why. Thanks for the warning. Lots of sellers sell faulty products on ebay and amazon as brand new, I try to avoid them for expensive tech... edit - just realised the flickering on screen is not a driver or hardware glitch but the actual game, lol, although coil whine at the lowest of fps I would call an issue (although the card manufacturers no doubt don't)
Just got a RX 7800 XT XFX QICK, it also has coil whine. It's not as loud as yours, it's softer, but it is there. I am considering to send it back on the Monday. It's not acceptable to pay this much for a card to have this quality.
If: - you connected it to PSU with 2 separate cables - You got over powered PSU (with 250+W above recommended power) - You limit FPS to 60 and it still got coil whine, don't hesitate - send it back.
My MSI GTX 1080 used to have a lot of coil whine when it was new but it went away at some point, even when running things at 3000 fps. Too bad the card has crashing issues so I need to replace it anyway.
You're in similar situation like me - i had 1080 Gaming X, it had coil whone and fans was squeaking. RMA didint helped, so i didi it once again this time with steps how to apply resin to coils. It was few months after release of RTX 2000. They broke my 1080 completely, but offered 1080Ti as replacement - with no original box, refurbished - i agreed. Card was super quiet in terms of coil whine. i was happy owner till 2020, when troubles with VRAM has started - crashing, was among them. I decided to not make RMA again and try red team for the first time since R9 270 OC from gigabyte, with loudest coil whine ever heard (but fixed, 300-400FPS was not a problem for its coils). I had Cooler Master case, C700P Black Edition, made with vertical layout in mind - GPU outputs facing top). I bought used card, XFX 6800 XT Merc 319 Black - i regret till today i sold it, as this card was not compatible with that case layout and i wanted to try more radeons, to get better knowledge, which brands of red team to invest in future. That time those cards costed 1500 USD! But i made a switch to Red Devil Limited Edition. It also wasnt working fine in chimney layout. So again without loose, i invested in RTX 3080 ASUS TUF - that card was working fine in that layout for 3 months - then heatsink started to bend from PCB and one of termopads was squeezed too much (not from heatsink bend, i discovered that by luck - it was in opposite side, to where bending should squeeze termopads). ASUS support took my RMA and updated BIOS. Yes, they tried to fix high VRM and VRAM temps caused by bad termopad contact by BIOS update. After that they told me "hey, you can replace termopads yourself". Card costed me around 6000 PLN (1450 USD), termopads, that i needed, with proper heat conductivity 12,5W/mK and proper sizes costed 500PLN (120USD) + shipping. I told myself - f*** this, i sell this card. And on this RTX i've lost 2000PLN (480 USD). I bought this crap from video, as i had switched case layout to normal, horizontal - bought this crap card for 1250 USD. i replaced it 2 times, and returned last sample after making that video. After that i bought MSI Gaming Z Trio 6800 XT, for 4900PLN (1180 USD) and i'm keeping it till now. In default power settings it also whine, but with undervolt 2250Mhz/1050mV, -3 power limit its dead quiet. Its because i also replaced crappy fans for noctua (2x140mm) and made hole in side panel (actually i created side panel from scratch - 2/3 plexi, 1/3 mesh). Now only GPU's im thinking in future is RX 8000 series - and its gonna be Gigabyte or MSI. Why? Because Gigabyte wont void warranty after opening the card (only Gigabyte, ASUS and Inno3D). MSI - only if my current custom fan shroud will be compatible with their heatsink.
Just bought your exact same card. There was coil. Bought a 1000w expensive psu, same. It's A bit better than you (coils only over 100 fps and a bit less noisyer). But I'm a manic and hated it. What I did end up doing was to put the case farder and hidden, then it's kind of fine
ITS IS THE PROBLEM. Matter of ignoring this issue doesnt change that. Check what was going on in 2014, when GTX 970 had coil whine - thats first. Second if GPU have coil whine at low usage, and it is the same coil whine as high usage - thats the problem. Even XFX silently said about bad batch in response to me. I have listed every steps i tried in this video, there is no other possibility than bad batch. I'm using GPU's alo around 20 years, if i count my older brother PC's which we all 3 shared as brothers in same home. If GPU had coil whine after POST, or at slight load, with limited framerate (even to 30!) this is definitively faulty card and need to be send back or RMA. My current card also whine as crazy on stock settings, but stops after applying UV. Card from video didint reacted to anything.
I bought xfx rx 5700 xt ultra thicc edition a few years back and it constantly crashed during games none of my other rx 5700 xt’s had trouble running games. I kniw Xfx fixed the rx 5700s afterwards, but I will never buy another one if their products again I don’t care how much effort they put into them. They suck at cooler designs imo.
@@vlad_8011alright ty, I was planning to get this card and I did some research about it and I found your comments about these models on reddit, a non-Xt version is fine too ig
If it whine at scrolling, you can try older driver. If it whine in games, with limited max FPS, then send it back. MSI and ASUS seems to not have this problem.
@@vlad_8011 It whines pretty much everywhere like in your video. Mostly in games, even with fps cap. I've even started playing in headphones because the noise would be so bad
@@vlad_8011 I''ve reached out to my seller and they replied: "Unfortunately there is no guarantee fix for coil whine, it’s usually related to power. If the 12v going into the card is fluctuating or not clean it can cause some of the components to make some noise, and could also be manufacturing variances in components. It can also be caused by a power strip or the outlet a system is plugged into. It does not depend entirely on the card but is also due to the volatile components inside the card. Some report that changing power supply helped while some say it was changing motherboard, some people say that it just disappeared and others that nothing helped. We are not saying that it is a faulty with any of your components, what we are saying is that some brands and some components make that coil whine more noticeable. It's usually more noticeable during loadings or heavy loads that's why you hear it when you launch the game. This is not a product defect or fault and its normal with this type of products. As such and since there is no way to know if a new card would in fact have the same situation or not the manufacturer does not take it under warranty. Best regards, NR INFO " I've had this PSU with RTX 2060 and there was nothing like that
@@linden5480 You know whats worst? They are right - that usually nature of coil whine, and nature of RMA. Its all up to shop and manufacturer if they decide to fix it or replace it. But for that one specific card, i'm sure its faulty GPU (bad components). Here's why: - Tested PC on 3 wall outlets (different power) - Tested with UPS - Tested on total 5 different PSU's. Most GPU coil whine is normal at 140-160+ FPS, but no at 30 or 60 FPS, as mine (from video) and yours. All you can do is send it back with no given reason and choose different model. In Future be extremally carreful with XFX - best to buy used, with option to test them out in seller's PC or your PC before buy. New Gen GPU is also new gen, totally new level of coil whine.
Is it just background noise???!!! It does not affect the operation of the video card???!!! Is the card not working properly except for the sound???!!! Waiting for reply!!! Thank you!!!
You can't say to avoid the product since you've only had experience as a one unit, and that unit may only have a manufacturing defect. Of course, if you still have the warranty, you could trigger it, if not, it was just very bad luck on your part to get a defective product.
@@infopc.portugal I bought them all in X-Kom (Poland). There was 3 different serial numbers, with only last 2 numbers difference, but according to comments here, and over reddits, AMD forums, shops (product opinions) cards from same batch was available worldwide. Thats why i recommend avoiding XFX, not Radeons as a whole, and mostly CORE variants (XFX). I know CORE is cheaper, and there is reason behind it, even while CORE and BLACK looks the same. Also, from unofficial channels i know lot of those cards are back on the market, as while shops tried to RMA those cards, XFX refused to get those cards fixed, as they state, coil whine is not a problem. So shops sent new GPUs to clients, but those faulty batch have returned to shops untouched, and are back in cycle.
I have the RX-68XTALFD9 version of the merc 319 6800xt Debauer did a company breakdown of the card hes a computer science engineer and he says the card is overbuilt the componants are superiort and overkill i love my card and will watercool it my 3dmark scores are equal to a 3090ti you my friend got a bad one from a bad batch i am so sorry. did you try to reach out to XFX i registered mine for the warranty at the xfx site.

Miałem ten sam problem z 2080S od Gigabyte'a. Nie dało się przy nim wytrzymać. Co jest najlepsze po wymianie zasilacza na porządny piecyk o mocy 850W problem praktycznie zniknął (cisza jak makiem zasiał). Dzisiaj zamówiłem tego Radosława od XFX zobaczymy czy będzie ćwierkał...
U mnie najgorsze było to, że 5 zasilaczy i UPS nie zmieniły tego dźwięku w żadnym stopniu. Dodatkowo piszczenie było przy niskim poborze i niskiej ilości klatek na sekundę, stawało się JESZCZE głośniejsze jak ilośc klatek była wyższa niż 60 i pobór był większy niż 100W. Jedyne co miało wpływ jakikolwiek na hałas to Undervolting i Overclocking, ale nie szło tego wyeliminować. Obecnie siedzę na tym samym kompie, tego XFX zwróciłem, wziąłem MSI Gaming Z Trio (też 6800 XT) i jest zdecydowanie ciszej. Na początku był w ogóle cicho, piszczenie zaczęło się gdzieś po 3 miesiącach, ale na tyle ciche, że ledwo słyszalne. Jak będzie Ci piszczeć w niebiosa, to zwracaj póki się będzie dało. Nie reklamuj, bo XFX odrzuca takie reklamacje (a czas na zwrot Ci przepadnie), nie baw się w podmianki zasilacza (możesz spróbować na jednym innym, ale obstawiam będzie to samo), chyba że masz drugi pod ręką. Żadne nagranie nie odda tego jaki hałas był w całym pokoju. To nie była jedna piszcząca cewka, tylko z 5-10. Tu już bym obstawiał wade produkcyjną (albo proces produkcyjny, albo wadliwa partia). Tak czy siak, powodzenia!
@@vlad_8011 Ok jestem już po testach swojego egzemplarza. Ogólnie jest kompletna cisza tylko w bardziej wymagających grach typu CP2077 słychać cewki ale jest to akceptowalny poziom hałasu. Jedynie jakieś ekrany ładowania w grach gdzie kletki skaczą do niebotycznych wartości jest mega głośno, ale to chyba norma jest.

Thats depend where are you from - regional prices can differ pretty much. If i would buy card right now i would go to 7800XT/7900GRE or wait for 8800XT. I got the feeling its gonna be sooner than CES 2025.
Hello. I am interested in this video card, same assembler (I also have Asrock in mind), I contacted the seller and he told me it is XFX Swift 319, serial number WYU, will I have problems? Thank you very much, I like and subscribe
I bought a XFX Merc 6800xt used and yes it has coilwhine. I watched a bunch of videos on UA-cam that the XFX Merc is a solid card. I found your video later. Did you resolve this issue somehow? And another thing, the fans on the XFX Merc are terrible. Loud as hell. I've tuned them to 20% in adrenalin and it's more quiet but still a disturbing sound.
I answer to both question - i returned it, and on Gaming Z Trio i bought later, i mounted dual 140mm Noctua fans, then later, after this worked well i made aluminum frame (shroud) for fans to make it look better.
Only from the information sticker on its side. 68XTALFD9 is CORE 68XTACBD9 is BLACK Buts since 6800 XT BLACK is no more manufactured, i guess you got CORE.
Thanks man, can I ask you a favor? I am Italian and I'm looking to buy this card. Can you please tell me the bad serial Numbers and some way to prove that the card is fine? Thank you
Plus jamais xfx j ai eu pareil avec une rx6650xt swft 210, juste au menu du jeu sans jouer des le lancement d un jeu, c etait horrible et le vendeur ne voulais rien faire la carte n avait rien pour lui et m a rembourser 80%, beaucoup de vendeur se servent de ce problème pour rentrer de l argent sans effort.
No, ja próbowałem 5-ciu zasilaczy i takich cudów, że głowa mała (wszystko co znalazłem w internecie). Na obecnej karcie od MSI, przy nowym zasilaczu 1000W trochę karta ucichła (zaczęła piskać na domyślnych ustawieniach na poprzednim zasilaczu). Ogólnie utarło się, że zasilacz ma największy wpływ, bo wiele zależy od jego sprawności na danym % obciążenia, ale jak w karcie masz cewki, w których miedziany drucik jest luźny, kompletnie nie odizolowany od metalowej osłonki, to nawet żadne bóstwa nie pomogą.
Is this happening under load? How about different fan speed? You can test fans without load setting minimal fan speed to desired value and disabling zero RPM
@@vlad_8011 yeah its happening all the time, I wonder if its air turbulence? cause I have lian li 205 case, and the fans are like 5cm away from the floor panel
@@vlad_8011 I actually realised I just told you the SKU of the XFX Merc Cards. The serial number is actually different than the ones listed in the video.
i got this card and no problems at all, only a bit coil whine when on main menu and stuff like that if fps is uncapped. otherwise pretty silent and overclocks + undervolts good
Right now definitely 6800XT. year ago i would recommend 3070 Ti, but now, in newer titles RT performance is gonna be weak, plus 8GB VRAM is gonna get into signs. Not sure what region are you from and what prices you see in shop, but if 6800 XT, go straight into MSI or ASUS. Dont even consider other brands as coil whine is around 80% chances. You may consider even 6900 XT or 6950 XT - check their prices before buying, sometimes there are great discounts and those cards can be cheaper than 6800 XT.
To zależy. Jeśli kupiłeś w ciągu ostatnich 14 dni, to masz prawo do zwrotu bez podania przyczyny. Jeśli kupiłeś wcześniej, możesz zareklamować produkt, z zaznaczeniem, że interesuje cię "wymiana na nowy, wolny od wad" (bardzo ważne określenie). Zwykle jak sklepy dostają takie pismo, zwracają kasę. Jeśli w Niemczech mają inne podejście, to znajdą ci sprawną i wyślą. I tak, fakturę zawsze miej, bo jest podstawą do każdego działania.
I bought one of these gpus 2 weeks ago along with a Gigabyte p1000gm gold psu, a ryzen 7 5800x 3d and a gigabyte aorus b550 elite v2. Everything worked fine until 3 days ago when my pc started to restart when the gpu was under load, such as gaming or furmark. I sent the card back to the shop for warranty and i am waiting to hear from them. This is beyond ridiculous ! They ask 800€ for gpus that are of this quality? If they send me another one of these and it's the same i will ask for my money back and buy another model.
@@vlad_8011 used 2 separate cables, tried to use an older driver, tried to update motherboard bios, tried to limit the GPU clock, nothing works. Also i known it's the gpu because pc works fine with another gpu inside.
@@Dragunov0511 Yeah, it will work with older GPU no problem - but that still leaves question mark on the PSU. Restarts under load are 99,8% fault of PSU.
@@vlad_8011 i'm using a R9 290 now, which according to google draws 275 watts, while the 6800xt draws 279, i doubt 4 watts would cause a restart. Also, right before the restart happens the screen flashes green for half a second. Also, if it was a power delivery issue, it would have failed when i first turned it on. Anyway, i am pretty sure it's just a bad GPU but if it turns out it is the psu i can rma that too no problem.
@@Dragunov0511 that green screen changes the matter. It may be GPU. But even with similar power draw, it still may be PSU. Specially that 2 of those GPUs are made totally different architecture, differ in vrm sections, etc. I saw around 10 of such examples, and had spare PSU (from the black list now days) thermaltake 630W 80 plus, and tested those 10 setups exactly on this PSU (which btw the way was worse than their original PSUs and much weaker) and there were no problems. Fresh examples is client swap rtx 3080 (350W OC version) to 6900XT (300W), so lower tdp, but PC started to restart. I swapped psu to my time fuze bomb, and woala - it worked perfectly fine.
How would you know the serial number before you buy it? Also, are there any brands that in general have less issues with coil whine, is the component quality part of that?
Yes. Short after this video i swapped to MSI Gaming Z Trio (6800XT also) - no problem since. There is small amount of coil whine, but undervolting and limiting FPS helps a lot.
Das sind die spulen und nicht die GPU, das problem gibt es seit mindestens 15 jahren. Die lösungen wären entweder spulen mit sekundenkleber füllen. Die ganze Grafikkarte tauschen oder ein anderes netzteil benutzen.
man my xfx merc sounds like a jet engine for change and i dont know what to do, doesnt help i bought it used, it has warranty but idk if i have to send it to xfx or the retailer, since that retailer in my country is dogshit and it can take months to solve it...
Well, if its used, warranty is only solution. XFX support is dogshit everywhere, not only in your country ;) By any chance - what case orientation are you using? I know many GPUs are not working well in vertical layout (video outputs facing the top).
@@vlad_8011 I have mATX case which doesn't help it at all, but before this GPU I had 6700 XT Phatnom Gaming OC which was super quiet at extreme OC (2650MHz on core) and the thing is, this GPU pulls the same fucking amount of power -_- so idk what to do.
@@matyasselmek3673 Try set custom fan curve to your own liking, and 2250Mhz / 1050mV. You can also play with power limit (-1 to -5). I made this (not only this) and hotspot now doesnt extend 70 degree with low fan RPM (but i also swapped original fans to dual 140mm standard size). For even lower temps i made custom side panel for my case (maybe i'll make video about it), with 1/3 mesh for GPU exhaust (EXHAUST, not intake - thats very important).
@@vlad_8011 so the thing is, my fans ramp up to 80% and temps go up to 80C and 103 hotspot, I already repasted it and replaced the thermal pads, even applied extra pressure on the screws and nothing helped I think IM just gonna send it back.
@@matyasselmek3673 You can try to send it back if you have such option. But for me it looks like wrong orientation. Are you sure card is mounted horizontally, with fans facing down? Is there some airflow inside? Did you tried to remove side panel?
Put volume up. That's just microphone characteristics. You can record it only next to GPU, in real you can hear it just as on player with volume 100%, but in whole room.
Osobiście znalazłem 2 - XFX Merc BLACK (w przypadku modelu 6800 XT już nieprodukowana, ale XFX ogólnie odradzam ze względu na wsparcie pozakupowe czyt. gwarancje a raczej jego brak) i minimalnie piszczącą MSI Gaming Z Trio. Za to tyka bez obciążenia (też cewki). "Wandal" z mojego wątku na forum AMD zrobił testy i nie ma również zbyt pozytywnych wieści community.amd.com/t5/graphics/radeon-6800-xt-coil-whine-after-reaching-100w-power-usage/td-p/524236 Nie jest to już nawet kwestia zasilacza ani płyty/biosu, a raczej vbios karty graficznej.
? Noone could sit with me in same room with this GPU more than one minute. Its nature of sound frequency, that microphone can't catch this so easily, and you have to put 100% volume on your playback device to hear 80-90% of what I hear all around inside room.
@@vlad_8011 it the one on sale at Amazon right now for 470 . I believe it basically the same thing. I’ll test it and let you know before I send it back
@@vlad_8011 thank you , I won't. These type of softwares cause more issues than being beneficial. I'm considering buying this GPU because it's cheaper than rtx 3080 and cost the same price as an rtx 3070 ti here in my country , I just couldn't find any reviews for the Z model and I heard some people are complaining about high junction temp and quality control issues. That's why I'm asking you.
@@karimberrahal536 Difference between junction temp and core temp shouldnt be more than 17 degree - then everything is fine. You can also select Gaming X, but Gaming Z have more possible higher GPU clock. You can allways lower it to your need, but its sure it will go higher in case you will need it in future. As for performance - i had both 3080 and now 6800 XT and without RT, and resolutions FHD and 1440p this radeon is mostly beating 3080. Not to mention power consumption, which on power limit -3%, 2250Mhz 1050mv take less than 200W. 50-60 Core temp, up to 70 junction temp max are my result.
Most reviews are merc319 BLACK, and now it's no longer produced (for 6800 XT, 6900 XT are still made), all those available 6800XT Merc319 from XFX are version CORE. They got it on their website.

Yeah, I refunded it as I could. The shop I was buying from (X-Kom, Poland) have policy, that allow you to ask for replacement for brand new card of seme model. That's what I did 2 times (so 3 cards in total) and 3, with last xfx card was refund.

@@darkfantome7097 it was at least.

I felt literally f***ed. 6950XT was in price of 6800XT, and 6900XT was cheaper. That was for around 2 weeks in Poland.
Są 2 identyczne z wyglądu karty merc 319 CORE i merc 319 BLACK. Wszystkie recenzje opierają się o wersję BLACK, a dostępne w sprzedaży są wersje CORE (6800 XT w wersji BLACK jest już nie produkowane), w których piszczące cewki występują zdecydowanie częściej. W 7900 XT/XTX firma XFX też robi 2 identyczne modele. Różnią się jak w przypadku RDNA 2 ceną i wykończeniem samej płytki drukowanej.

I can only imagine how do you fell, really I amafraid for you, really, and I certainly think it's true, but I also have to say that I have the same Gpu you have and I do more of 19500 points with the stock Gpu, in 3D Mark, graphic, end more than 18000 in spy. It's new, liquid cooled, and I'm finishing to bild the PC, so I only did a first rapid benchmark for verifying it was... almost normal? I will give images and photos of what I'm saying, but really, I have to say it, my Merc 319 core is a Monster. A monster. I don't look at 3080ti, I look at 3090. Wine coil? Yes, a little, because I use core P3 bench without the glass, and nearest of half meter you hear that, but... it was mute volume... I was really near... I've never spend my money better. Sorry if I say this to you, but so is.
Happy for you. I have sended back this, and bought 6800 XT from MSI (Gaming Z) - only clicking noise on idle, and some whine in Far Cry 6, but not terrible. This XFX from video, was so loud, that only standing behind door would stop it.
Wiesz może czy takie same problemy zdarzają się z wersją SWFT? Mam do wyboru z trzech 6800 XT (PowerColor Red Dragon, XFX SWFT i ASRock), a akurat te XFXy fajnie wyglądają. Nigdy nie kupowałem karty AMD, więc jakaś porada by się mogła przydać :p
Nie mam niestety żadnych informacji odnośnie SWFT, jednak po opiniach na Amazonie można wyczytać, że też jest tego sporo. Na Twoim miejscu wybrałbym ASrocka - z tych trzech modeli masz największe szanse ustrzelić cichą sztukę. Zawsze pamiętaj, że undervolting może pomóc, jak i on zawiedzie, masz 14 dni na zwrot. Dzisiaj nie musisz się obawiać że kart braknie, więc wybierz pewny sklep i próbuj ;)
What it have to do with coil whine? Card was cold. I had around 750rpm. On 100% it's jet engine. I have invested in noctua fans for some reason. BTW you can't set 5% rpm, minimal is 15%>
@@vlad_8011 except Minecraft doesn’t have 3d in the menus so the card isn’t running at max clock rate. Also i get coil whine in overwatch menu too where it’s capped at 60 fps and the card is running at like 20%
There is no microphone, that would catch this frequency sound far from PC. That's why I placed phone directly in top of GPU, underneath, and next to it. You need also crank up volume to 100% while I'm doing this. That's basics on all coil whine videos.
You are completely wrong. FPS does matter, as coil whine usualy starts at 150+ FPS in normal, correctly made card. It is loud, as i stated in video - i can hear it very loud all over the room. Thats called bad batch.
Update #2 : Replaced for MSI RX 6800 XT Gaming Z Trio - small coil whine, that can be limited even further by undervolting.
So that (on video) was pure XFX issue. Do not buy from company, that doesnt list "coil whine" as a reason for RMA. Gigabyte, MSI, ASUS (yes, even ASUS!) all accepted RMA made by me, or which I assisted. Since 2014. If XFX is dodging responsibility, they done something to make those cards cheaper and its probably resulting with coil whine.
MSI also doesn't accept wards with coil whine for RMA. If it's not too loud
@@Вадим-к6ж8р MSI accept, at least in Europe.
I was looking to upgrade from a gtx 1080 and settled on getting a rx 6800, and the xfx caught my eye price wise. Found your video and it made me re-consider, but I kept looking. Then I found an msi gaming trio z 6800 for a good price, and I just ordered it. Thank you so much for helping me avoid a potential headache. Liked and subscribed!
I got mine and it also screamed a lot. Changed the my PSU from a CX650M with a RM850X connecting 2 individuals PCI cables and no more coil whine. Works like a charm.
I'm happy for you.
@@tyblackwood yes, I never used single cable in the first place. Even in quick start guide for GPU it's told to use 2 separate cables :) .
I just sold a 6600XT Red Dvil for $180 and bought a $200 6month old XFX 6750XT Quick RX-675XYJFDP version for my son's PC. I have a Seasonic FOCUS GM-750 Gold power supply powering it. I did notice the coil whine right away before my cap was in place. But luckily it is not too bad with my FPS cap always set to 162 in either AMD driver or RivaTuner. With no cap easy to run games like L4D2 was hitting almost 300fps and is far more noticeable. Dropping my cap to the usual 162 is enough coil whine reduction that I don't think it will bother me. Even capping it down to 60fps I could still hear the whine. It's still there but inaudible unless I put my ear to the front of the case. I just hope my OCD doesn't notice it at my own desk since his PC is in the office with mine.
I wouldn't be too happy if I bought it new for $350 but used at $200 and barely noticeable I think I will be fine. Too bad the card is so big or I could just put it in a Media PC that only runs 60fps vsync as the TV is a basic 4k with only 60hz. Certainly would not want to run this at 240hz+. I just leave my 162 cap enabled in both AMD driver and RivaTuner in case RT isn't running. That way 162 is always set to maintain Freesync sync as setting it to 165 the FPS does spike up 1 or 2 at times. 162 gives me enough buffer range for the 1 or 2 spikes so the monitor and GPU stay always in the proper smooth sync.
I have a bunch of AMD GPU's in service at the house and between Gigabyte Gaming OC and Eagle 6700XT, Powercolor 6600XT Red Dev, Asus TUF 6900XT I have not noticed coil whine. Pretty sure this new to me XFX 6750XT is the only card that has this. Thanks for the heads up, hopefully your situation has been resolved with a quiet card replacement or simply a new card all together.
I already replaced that card for MSI 6800XT Gaming Z Trio, it didint whines at all, after few months started, but undervolting it to 2250Mhz/1050Mv, -4 power Limit is making it quiet.
@@vlad_8011 I will certainly keep this in mind for future gpu purchases. I’m sure many different brands have this issue at times so maybe I will do a quick google of coil whine and the model number to see if there is a known issue like there is with these XFX versions of 6000 series.
XFX RX 6900 XT reporting:
I had severely loud coil wine in the beginning. Few months later it is really quiet, and, in some games, it is no longer present. I didn't do anything.

I can recommend ASUS TUF or MSI Gaming X or Z.
That's least whining cards from what I know. If you will plan to swap fans on GPU then you should choose MSI, as it have fan header for cheap 4pin pwm fan adapter - then all standard fans will work with it (also got video for swapping fans). On ASUS it's bit harder as they use some 7pin headers, and many adapter fails to work. In the other hand, RTX 3000 TUF is not equal 6800XT TUF, and Asus used strix cooler and fans on AMD card, just fan shroud is from Tuf there.

That's so unacceptable. These companies charging so much for GPUs that we cannot even afford and you get this. What scumbags. I hope other models of the 6800xt are ok. I am soon to get a custom PC.
IMPORTANT! - I experienced the exact same issue as shown with the exact same card ... my coil whine was 1,000% worse than what is shown here. I was using a Corsair HX 750 in known good working order ... nothing I did made any difference UNTIL I UPGRADED TO A CORSAIR RM1000x and ALL COIL WHINE WAS 100% ELIMINATED! The problem is NOT with the card, the coil whine is caused 100% by the Power Supply. It is my opinion that Upgrading to a more powerful PSU will resolve ALL Coil Whine in 100% of these cases. The coil whine I experienced was many, many, many times worse than anything I heard here or anything I heard other people were experiencing and 100% of my coil whine was COMPLETELY 100% ELIMINATED! ... Hope this helps!

@@KnightmareUSA Ye they said its having lunch now.
I got a 6900xt merc, the coil whine can be pretty loud, can't hear it with headphones on at all though, even if there is no sound going through the headphones, and as long as you play at a decent volume on speakers you can't really hear it so it doesn't bother me too much
Imagine how much the situation sucks for me, because for special compatibility reasons a new generation 7800 XT or such is not an option, and I guess there is a reason why these old-generation cards are still on the market for regular price while the arguably better brands are offered only with insane markups. So I have to take the gamble, if it even is a gamble and not just an almost guaranteed repackaged return product. - At least I picked a vendor that should make no trouble with sending back for this issue, if I have it and cannot mitigate it. Still an ugly situation, but the brands known for not having this issue are both not available for sane price or at all and I also kinda despise them for their business policies. - And I hear the Powercolor tend to have coil noise, too.
Also, had I heard about this earlier when the model line was still the latest one, it probably wouldn't have helped much, because at that time there was still general GPU price madness.
Wish me luck!
Unfortunately, I just received this card of the same batch (WXV...) and I have the same exact coil whine.
Same whine at 60 fps and same whine at 30 fps.
Undervolting did not help, it is clearly a bad batch probably with cheap capacitor and/or inductors.
Thanks for making theses videos, they really do help, and I wish I found them before I made my purchase.
I wanted buy the 6700 model from xfx, it seems to have the exact same issue. I will look other models from other manufacturer. Thanks for the video

@@GlamorousR haha too late, just bought the 6700 rog version from Asus, it Will replace a 6950 1gb from asus (which died last year) and the one I am using, another 6950 from.. Xfx... XD
@@GlamorousR I am using a 850w bronze PSU from Corsair, it has 11 years now, i have no coil whine from the Asus graphic card, nothing.
It looks like all brands have some coil whine issues. Many of the reviews of the PowerColor Red Dragon mention lots of coil whine. Some people say it goes away after some use and that it's not a defect. I just bought this card, hopefully I don't have any issues.
You think that’s loud? My Asus 3080 Strix sounds at least 10x-20x louder. I can hear it through my headphones and outside of my room. I’ve tried 3 of the Strix already and the same loud whine. Undervolt and FPS limit did not help. Only solution is to open it up and insulate the coils/inductors with thermal putty or superglue.
And lose warranty (in case of XFX). You can't insolate coils that XFX have - these are already insolated and you have no access to inside of the coil. Many people were trying and failed. Specially folks mounting water block, which is pushing on coils with termopads - it's isn't helping. But I understand - had exacly like you said with R9 270 oc windforce from Gigabyte years ago - it was same loud - room next to me, it was still hearable. I sent it over RMA to LOCAL SHOP where I bought it. They glued the coils - card was quiet till 500FPS.
But on XFX coils are pushed already with termopads. I tried to squeeze it even more on video.
It's bad construction of coil INSIDE, where you dont have access.
But here, on this XFX on video, it's different sound, camera, microphone won't catch it. It's like wasp was inside PC but very, very big wasp. I was able to hear it next to closed doors.
z mojego doswiadczenia moge powiedzieć że najpewniejsze karty od AMD to Sapphire potem Powercolor i MSI. MSI miałem 6800XT też miał lekkiego coilwhine ale bardzo cichego akceptowalnego i raczej na wysokim FPS powyzej 150.. Wcześniej miewałem poprzednie serie Sapphire i były ciche bez coilwhine. Obecnie najbardziej mnie interesuje Powercolor Hellhound z 7800XT, 7900XT , XTX - raczej dobre opinie i twierdzą że brak coil whine (czyli tego efektu). Fajnie że wrzuciłem film. Dużo promocji na XFX w BlackFriday.
Mam RX6800 od XFX, też mam lekki coil whine, ale poza tym żadnych problemów.
To cewki i nie ma znaczenia jaki producent. Powiem Ci na swoim przykładzie. Miałem u siebie RX 6700XT od msi, red devil od pc, sepphire i asrocka challenger i to właśnie najtańszy asrock miał najcichsze(chociaż dalej głośne pod obciążeniem) cewki. Morał z tego taki, że na piszczące cewki możesz trafić i w ROGu i w najtańszej karcie. Nie ma reguły 🤷♂
@@Krzysztof_S racja, tak po prostu tylko mowie ze ten powercolor na roznych stronach pisza ze nic nie ma a tez jest :) generalizujac to sapphire mam najwieksze zaufanie w tej kwestii.. Ale wracajac do tego co napisałeś.. No pół biedy jak nie są aż tak masakrycznie głośne , wtedy często jeśli gra nie jest mega wymagająca to mamy zapas FPS i tak. I u mnie naprzyklad 120hz monitor po prostu robie sobie locka na 120fps wtedy pradu pobor na gpu spada i przy 160-170W jest cisza , 210-220 cośtam słychać ale prawie nic, w sumie tylko na tym max 270W i tak w sumie od 240W zaczyna sie

@@tommyrunner Widzę, że ile ludzi tyle opinii, ja właśnie MSI, Powercolor i Sapphire trochę niżej oceniam, MSI ma kiepską politykę posprzedażową, Sapphire kiedyś miał problemy z coolerami, a Powercolor swojego czasu były najtańszymi niereferencyjnymi modelami, które miały słabe osiągi, ale pewnie żyję przeszłością i co generacje producenci się przeskakują, pewnie tylko Asus stoi na topce ciągle.
Cewki u mnie piszczą jak mam właśnie więcej FPS, np. powyżej 150.
note that coil whining comes in different multiple sources, some GPU capacitors reacts differently on capacitors that is inside the PSU , hell some gpu's coil whines in some specific scene/location in some games, that is why coil whining is not being accepted as RMA..... you have a better chance getting hit by lightning than getting 3 faulty GPU's.... the GPU's caps probably behaves that way because of your PSU.... hope this information helps.
I have UPS. I tested it on multiple PSUs. It's the GPU, 100%. Somehow XFX Merc Black (also 6800 xt), MSI gaming X (1080Ti, 6800XT), Asus TUF (RTX 3080) was not whining.
Sound also come from one place. I checked it with paper tube. PSU is dead silent. As I say in video, I have lost month for testing those 3 cards.
I believe all XFX 6800XT are like that. I got mine yesterday and it squeals horribly. When playing high-refresh games I can hear the graphics card whine from another room with the door closed. I'm returning it in a couple of days.
Not all, but lots of them. It depends which coils were used on production. MSI and Asus are known for being silent.
However in high FPS games there aren't many cards that don't whine - you have to be very lucky to get one. If it whine as you describe it, that's exactly what I had with this XFX, three times in the row. But xfx Black Merc and gaming z trio from MSI are very silent (no more produced xfx Merc Black edition didn't had coil whine at all FPS, even 144). You can try even on used market, with trying card at seller PC.
I had xfx black, guy told me he won't ship it, but he will deliver it personally. He drove half of Poland to do this. This card was taken care with best user I ever seen. I am very mad at myself I sold it (just to try RTX 3080).
@@vlad_8011 pulled the trigger to order xfx black, is it any good?
@@MonesahBuson XFX BLACK (not core) is the better version. It should not have coil whine.

From what I heard, with *high usage* overtime, coil whine will disappear eventually. The guy also said to put the card on *full load* for about 2 weeks then check it out. I can't verify this however as I haven't tried myself.
Yes, i heard that story many times too. But in this case its not worth the time and energy bill (and heating the room). First, there is exacly 2 weeks for return in Europe (Poland), second - energy cost is rising. Third - you would need to leave PC on for 24 hours per day for 2 weeks, which is a bit risky, if some storm arrives (i've lost 2 TV's like that ;( ).
So i decided to full load for 2 days. Imagine small metal box, with copper wire inside, which is vibrating. If you got coil whine, that metal wire is making that noise. If there is no filling of metal case (of the coil), like resin there is near zero % chance it will go away after. Faster you will get used to it. Also there is more chance that quiet card will get coil whine later, as this copper wire will make a gap in resin (or any other filling) and start "scratching" noise. XFX, for my understanding, used coils without filling in this batch.
But funny thing, i replaced PSU lastly, my MSI Gaming Z Trio also started to get coil whine after 3-4 months on stock settings (which are actually factory OC), but new PSU made that coil whining go. This is much more funny, if we take in account i have tested 5 PSU's on those XFX cards, which mean, nothing more than bad batch. Some PSU's may use.... (i'm not electrician, so noob alert) smoother voltage on some specific range ( for example 3-12V) and not cause this wire to vibrate on specific frequency.
Little update here : with RDNA 3 (new gen GPU) XFX decided to try again their luck, and they are doing exac thing with 7900 XT & 7900 XTX. Be aware what you choose, check carefully name in shop, compare SKU (part no.) With those from XFX page (if you decide to go with BLACK version) and ofc prepare extra 50 USD, as Black is 50 USD more expensive (at least with XT variant)
What about the xtx ? From amazon ?
@@TRYno397 these also came with 2 variants - Core and Black. Hard to tell in how much examples Black had coil whine, but it's again separating better and worse product.
I have a 7900XT Merc and it has a massive HotSpot issue. Because of that it´s very loud and throttles
Resseler and XFX are saying 105 degree hotspot is okay even 110 is fine. (core temp is around 55 degree)
Resseler doesn´t want to open an RMA, also do not allow me to repaste the GPU without loosing the warranty.
DON`T BUY ANY XFX Card, they are just cheap shit.
@@simracer7468 Agree - XFX support is one of worst. You have clearly bad thermal compund spread if core is 55, and its clearly valid reason for RMA. If they not want to respect it, just return it with no reason to shop (if you have that option). If you dont have that option, repaste the card - their support mean nothing as you can see (so is warranty).
Bro i need your help im gona buy this cart but i need to know whats the best or difference between swift and merc?? 😢
bro thank you alot you save me , big respect from saudi arabia to you , have a good day
Coil whine is caused by using only one rail on the power supply for the two 8 pin PCIe connectors.
The two 8 pin connectors need to be on separate 12v rails from your PSU. One rail/cable splitting to two 8 pin connectors, and you get coil whine. The more power hungry the card, the more coil whine when using only one rail. The Merc has higher factory OC than the Trio, so the coil whine is worse.
OC was THE SAME (2450Mhz/1150mv). I tried 5 PSU's and UPS system. Im not sure if the MERC even had lower clock by 100Mhz.
Coil whine was constant upon OC/UV, with 30 FPS LOCK! It all in video.
My XFX 6750xt AND the XFX 6950xt had incredible coilwhine with different power supplies. Never again a radeon card, especially not from XFX !
I can reccommend MSI - got radeon and its silent radeon ;)
I don't wan't to defend any company, in my case I bought one and it's running superb.
My 6800xt Red Devil has coil whine too, but i undervolted it and helped, didn't disappear completely, but it's way quieter
Mine 6800 XT gaming Z Trio just started to whine yesterday - on 2300mhz/1100mv :( . It's not as loud as XFX, but still hearable. Same sound as XFX but quieter. Right now I'm starting to believe all Radeons will have that sooner or later. What's worse, I loosed silicon lottery and it won't go under 1100mv.

They are around 540 UK from a seller on amazon uk right now. This might be why. Thanks for the warning. Lots of sellers sell faulty products on ebay and amazon as brand new, I try to avoid them for expensive tech... edit - just realised the flickering on screen is not a driver or hardware glitch but the actual game, lol, although coil whine at the lowest of fps I would call an issue (although the card manufacturers no doubt don't)
Just got a RX 7800 XT XFX QICK, it also has coil whine. It's not as loud as yours, it's softer, but it is there. I am considering to send it back on the Monday. It's not acceptable to pay this much for a card to have this quality.
If:
- you connected it to PSU with 2 separate cables
- You got over powered PSU (with 250+W above recommended power)
- You limit FPS to 60
and it still got coil whine, don't hesitate - send it back.
My MSI GTX 1080 used to have a lot of coil whine when it was new but it went away at some point, even when running things at 3000 fps. Too bad the card has crashing issues so I need to replace it anyway.
You're in similar situation like me - i had 1080 Gaming X, it had coil whone and fans was squeaking. RMA didint helped, so i didi it once again this time with steps how to apply resin to coils. It was few months after release of RTX 2000. They broke my 1080 completely, but offered 1080Ti as replacement - with no original box, refurbished - i agreed. Card was super quiet in terms of coil whine. i was happy owner till 2020, when troubles with VRAM has started - crashing, was among them. I decided to not make RMA again and try red team for the first time since R9 270 OC from gigabyte, with loudest coil whine ever heard (but fixed, 300-400FPS was not a problem for its coils). I had Cooler Master case, C700P Black Edition, made with vertical layout in mind - GPU outputs facing top). I bought used card, XFX 6800 XT Merc 319 Black - i regret till today i sold it, as this card was not compatible with that case layout and i wanted to try more radeons, to get better knowledge, which brands of red team to invest in future. That time those cards costed 1500 USD! But i made a switch to Red Devil Limited Edition. It also wasnt working fine in chimney layout. So again without loose, i invested in RTX 3080 ASUS TUF - that card was working fine in that layout for 3 months - then heatsink started to bend from PCB and one of termopads was squeezed too much (not from heatsink bend, i discovered that by luck - it was in opposite side, to where bending should squeeze termopads). ASUS support took my RMA and updated BIOS. Yes, they tried to fix high VRM and VRAM temps caused by bad termopad contact by BIOS update. After that they told me "hey, you can replace termopads yourself". Card costed me around 6000 PLN (1450 USD), termopads, that i needed, with proper heat conductivity 12,5W/mK and proper sizes costed 500PLN (120USD) + shipping. I told myself - f*** this, i sell this card. And on this RTX i've lost 2000PLN (480 USD). I bought this crap from video, as i had switched case layout to normal, horizontal - bought this crap card for 1250 USD. i replaced it 2 times, and returned last sample after making that video. After that i bought MSI Gaming Z Trio 6800 XT, for 4900PLN (1180 USD) and i'm keeping it till now. In default power settings it also whine, but with undervolt 2250Mhz/1050mV, -3 power limit its dead quiet. Its because i also replaced crappy fans for noctua (2x140mm) and made hole in side panel (actually i created side panel from scratch - 2/3 plexi, 1/3 mesh). Now only GPU's im thinking in future is RX 8000 series - and its gonna be Gigabyte or MSI. Why? Because Gigabyte wont void warranty after opening the card (only Gigabyte, ASUS and Inno3D). MSI - only if my current custom fan shroud will be compatible with their heatsink.
@@vlad_8011 I had an EXTREMLY overpriced Asus RTX 3090 Rog Strix card, which had coil whine. Not sure why such expensive GPUs have coil whine..
Just bought your exact same card. There was coil. Bought a 1000w expensive psu, same. It's A bit better than you (coils only over 100 fps and a bit less noisyer). But I'm a manic and hated it. What I did end up doing was to put the case farder and hidden, then it's kind of fine
Mine got this problem buying 5 days ago take care guys!
i have been using gpu's more than 20 years, %90 of them had coil whine, its not a problem bro.
ITS IS THE PROBLEM. Matter of ignoring this issue doesnt change that. Check what was going on in 2014, when GTX 970 had coil whine - thats first.
Second if GPU have coil whine at low usage, and it is the same coil whine as high usage - thats the problem. Even XFX silently said about bad batch in response to me. I have listed every steps i tried in this video, there is no other possibility than bad batch.
I'm using GPU's alo around 20 years, if i count my older brother PC's which we all 3 shared as brothers in same home. If GPU had coil whine after POST, or at slight load, with limited framerate (even to 30!) this is definitively faulty card and need to be send back or RMA.
My current card also whine as crazy on stock settings, but stops after applying UV. Card from video didint reacted to anything.
I bought xfx rx 5700 xt ultra thicc edition a few years back and it constantly crashed during games none of my other rx 5700 xt’s had trouble running games. I kniw Xfx fixed the rx 5700s afterwards, but I will never buy another one if their products again I don’t care how much effort they put into them. They suck at cooler designs imo.

@@linden5480 No man, respect yourself - send it back. It definitely should not whine like that.
@@vlad_8011 I''ve reached out to my seller and they replied: "Unfortunately there is no guarantee fix for coil whine, it’s usually related to power. If the 12v going into the card is fluctuating or not clean it can cause some of the components to make some noise, and could also be manufacturing variances in components. It can also be caused by a power strip or the outlet a system is plugged into. It does not depend entirely on the card but is also due to the volatile components inside the card.
Some report that changing power supply helped while some say it was changing motherboard, some people say that it just disappeared and others that nothing helped. We are not saying that it is a faulty with any of your components, what we are saying is that some brands and some components make that coil whine more noticeable. It's usually more noticeable during loadings or heavy loads that's why you hear it when you launch the game. This is not a product defect or fault and its normal with this type of products. As such and since there is no way to know if a new card would in fact have the same situation or not the manufacturer does not take it under warranty.

I've had this PSU with RTX 2060 and there was nothing like that
@@linden5480 You know whats worst? They are right - that usually nature of coil whine, and nature of RMA. Its all up to shop and manufacturer if they decide to fix it or replace it.
But for that one specific card, i'm sure its faulty GPU (bad components). Here's why:
- Tested PC on 3 wall outlets (different power)
- Tested with UPS
- Tested on total 5 different PSU's.
Most GPU coil whine is normal at 140-160+ FPS, but no at 30 or 60 FPS, as mine (from video) and yours. All you can do is send it back with no given reason and choose different model. In Future be extremally carreful with XFX - best to buy used, with option to test them out in seller's PC or your PC before buy.
New Gen GPU is also new gen, totally new level of coil whine.
Is it just background noise???!!! It does not affect the operation of the video card???!!! Is the card not working properly except for the sound???!!! Waiting for reply!!! Thank you!!!
Coil whine doesn't makes you card fail in any meaning. This is only noise problem for the user's ears.
You can't say to avoid the product since you've only had experience as a one unit, and that unit may only have a manufacturing defect.
Of course, if you still have the warranty, you could trigger it, if not, it was just very bad luck on your part to get a defective product.

Dzisiaj zamówiłem tego Radosława od XFX zobaczymy czy będzie ćwierkał...
U mnie najgorsze było to, że 5 zasilaczy i UPS nie zmieniły tego dźwięku w żadnym stopniu. Dodatkowo piszczenie było przy niskim poborze i niskiej ilości klatek na sekundę, stawało się JESZCZE głośniejsze jak ilośc klatek była wyższa niż 60 i pobór był większy niż 100W. Jedyne co miało wpływ jakikolwiek na hałas to Undervolting i Overclocking, ale nie szło tego wyeliminować. Obecnie siedzę na tym samym kompie, tego XFX zwróciłem, wziąłem MSI Gaming Z Trio (też 6800 XT) i jest zdecydowanie ciszej. Na początku był w ogóle cicho, piszczenie zaczęło się gdzieś po 3 miesiącach, ale na tyle ciche, że ledwo słyszalne.
Jak będzie Ci piszczeć w niebiosa, to zwracaj póki się będzie dało. Nie reklamuj, bo XFX odrzuca takie reklamacje (a czas na zwrot Ci przepadnie), nie baw się w podmianki zasilacza (możesz spróbować na jednym innym, ale obstawiam będzie to samo), chyba że masz drugi pod ręką.
Żadne nagranie nie odda tego jaki hałas był w całym pokoju. To nie była jedna piszcząca cewka, tylko z 5-10. Tu już bym obstawiał wade produkcyjną (albo proces produkcyjny, albo wadliwa partia).

Is this happening under load? How about different fan speed? You can test fans without load setting minimal fan speed to desired value and disabling zero RPM
@@vlad_8011 yeah its happening all the time, I wonder if its air turbulence? cause I have lian li 205 case, and the fans are like 5cm away from the floor panel
@@vlad_8011 I can feel a vibrating/ pulsating sound if I put the hand on backpanel
@@grovachips6178 at this point I would suspect some fans vibrating, or HDD (if you have any).
i think your psu and gpu are having coilwhine thats why you got high pitch sound, did you try to change the psu
I speak about it in video - 5 PSUs tried, with and without UPS.
@@vlad_8011 did the ups make it worse or it's the same thing
@@mhocine47 There was no difference.
Hello sir I recently try bought one of these cards and I have the model number 68XTAL. Do you know if this card consist of this issue?
Yeah, that's the SKU of card from this video
@@vlad_8011 I actually realised I just told you the SKU of the XFX Merc Cards. The serial number is actually different than the ones listed in the video.
XFX6800XT en modo manual 890rpm continuo y sin ruido incluso mas silenciosa y temperatura mas baja que mi antigua GTX770.. ¡EXCELENTE COMPRA
Yeah, if you hit the jackpot and won't get coil whine, it's the best 6800 XT.
Con el software de amd?
i love the desgin of xfx but seeing this video i will get the red devil model
i got this card and no problems at all, only a bit coil whine when on main menu and stuff like that if fps is uncapped. otherwise pretty silent and overclocks + undervolts good
3070 ti or 6800 xt what you thijk and which brands in gpu are better
Right now definitely 6800XT. year ago i would recommend 3070 Ti, but now, in newer titles RT performance is gonna be weak, plus 8GB VRAM is gonna get into signs.
Not sure what region are you from and what prices you see in shop, but if 6800 XT, go straight into MSI or ASUS. Dont even consider other brands as coil whine is around 80% chances.
You may consider even 6900 XT or 6950 XT - check their prices before buying, sometimes there are great discounts and those cards can be cheaper than 6800 XT.
Siema, mam sprawę bo ziomeczek sprzedaje z kodem seryjnym WYU084854, myślisz żeby brać bo to wersja chyba black
U NEED MSI AFTERBURNER TO SET YOUR CUSTOM FAN PROFILE'S FOR GPU, MAKE SURE VSYMC IS OFF IN GAME OR IT WILL RUN 60FPS DEFAULT

a jak to sie wymienia? Ja mam karte z niemczech. Faktura wystarczy do wymiany karty?
To zależy. Jeśli kupiłeś w ciągu ostatnich 14 dni, to masz prawo do zwrotu bez podania przyczyny.
Jeśli kupiłeś wcześniej, możesz zareklamować produkt, z zaznaczeniem, że interesuje cię "wymiana na nowy, wolny od wad" (bardzo ważne określenie). Zwykle jak sklepy dostają takie pismo, zwracają kasę. Jeśli w Niemczech mają inne podejście, to znajdą ci sprawną i wyślą.
I tak, fakturę zawsze miej, bo jest podstawą do każdego działania.
same problem with xfx rx 6750xt
I bought one of these gpus 2 weeks ago along with a Gigabyte p1000gm gold psu, a ryzen 7 5800x 3d and a gigabyte aorus b550 elite v2.
Everything worked fine until 3 days ago when my pc started to restart when the gpu was under load, such as gaming or furmark.
I sent the card back to the shop for warranty and i am waiting to hear from them. This is beyond ridiculous ! They ask 800€ for gpus that are of this quality?
If they send me another one of these and it's the same i will ask for my money back and buy another model.
Actually it look more like PSU fault. Did you used separate 8 pin cables?
@@vlad_8011 used 2 separate cables, tried to use an older driver, tried to update motherboard bios, tried to limit the GPU clock, nothing works. Also i known it's the gpu because pc works fine with another gpu inside.
@@Dragunov0511 Yeah, it will work with older GPU no problem - but that still leaves question mark on the PSU. Restarts under load are 99,8% fault of PSU.
@@vlad_8011 i'm using a R9 290 now, which according to google draws 275 watts, while the 6800xt draws 279, i doubt 4 watts would cause a restart. Also, right before the restart happens the screen flashes green for half a second. Also, if it was a power delivery issue, it would have failed when i first turned it on.
Anyway, i am pretty sure it's just a bad GPU but if it turns out it is the psu i can rma that too no problem.
@@Dragunov0511 that green screen changes the matter. It may be GPU. But even with similar power draw, it still may be PSU. Specially that 2 of those GPUs are made totally different architecture, differ in vrm sections, etc. I saw around 10 of such examples, and had spare PSU (from the black list now days) thermaltake 630W 80 plus, and tested those 10 setups exactly on this PSU (which btw the way was worse than their original PSUs and much weaker) and there were no problems. Fresh examples is client swap rtx 3080 (350W OC version) to 6900XT (300W), so lower tdp, but PC started to restart. I swapped psu to my time fuze bomb, and woala - it worked perfectly fine.
How would you know the serial number before you buy it? Also, are there any brands that in general have less issues with coil whine, is the component quality part of that?
You can ask shop before buying for serial number via email. From what I know ASUS and MSI have least chance of coil whine.
its psu problem with old i have no problem with new seasonic coil whine, even with my sounblaster card in speaker haved coil whine :]
No, its GPU problem. Tried 5 PSU's, UPS and different cards. Only XFX's are whining.
Heya , did you change your GPU card
Yes. Short after this video i swapped to MSI Gaming Z Trio (6800XT also) - no problem since. There is small amount of coil whine, but undervolting and limiting FPS helps a lot.
good to hear that vlad ! stay happy merryxmass@@vlad_8011
Das sind die spulen und nicht die GPU, das problem gibt es seit mindestens 15 jahren. Die lösungen wären entweder spulen mit sekundenkleber füllen. Die ganze Grafikkarte tauschen oder ein anderes netzteil benutzen.
U used 5 different GPU 's and UPS. I got replaced this GPU for MSI Gaming Z trio.
This was coil whine on GPU.
Always Sapphire, PowerColor and Asus.
man my xfx merc sounds like a jet engine for change and i dont know what to do, doesnt help i bought it used, it has warranty but idk if i have to send it to xfx or the retailer, since that retailer in my country is dogshit and it can take months to solve it...
Well, if its used, warranty is only solution. XFX support is dogshit everywhere, not only in your country ;) By any chance - what case orientation are you using? I know many GPUs are not working well in vertical layout (video outputs facing the top).
@@vlad_8011 I have mATX case which doesn't help it at all, but before this GPU I had 6700 XT Phatnom Gaming OC which was super quiet at extreme OC (2650MHz on core) and the thing is, this GPU pulls the same fucking amount of power -_- so idk what to do.
@@matyasselmek3673 Try set custom fan curve to your own liking, and 2250Mhz / 1050mV. You can also play with power limit (-1 to -5). I made this (not only this) and hotspot now doesnt extend 70 degree with low fan RPM (but i also swapped original fans to dual 140mm standard size). For even lower temps i made custom side panel for my case (maybe i'll make video about it), with 1/3 mesh for GPU exhaust (EXHAUST, not intake - thats very important).
@@vlad_8011 so the thing is, my fans ramp up to 80% and temps go up to 80C and 103 hotspot, I already repasted it and replaced the thermal pads, even applied extra pressure on the screws and nothing helped I think IM just gonna send it back.
@@matyasselmek3673 You can try to send it back if you have such option. But for me it looks like wrong orientation. Are you sure card is mounted horizontally, with fans facing down? Is there some airflow inside? Did you tried to remove side panel?
I can't hear anything 😳
Put volume up. That's just microphone characteristics. You can record it only next to GPU, in real you can hear it just as on player with volume 100%, but in whole room.
sounds like a typical xfx card...
Znalazłeś grafikę która nie gada ? A może jakoś rozwiązałeś problem ?
Osobiście znalazłem 2 - XFX Merc BLACK (w przypadku modelu 6800 XT już nieprodukowana, ale XFX ogólnie odradzam ze względu na wsparcie pozakupowe czyt. gwarancje a raczej jego brak) i minimalnie piszczącą MSI Gaming Z Trio. Za to tyka bez obciążenia (też cewki).

Well, XFX WAS (i repeat, WAS) big brand back in the past, they were also partner of Nvidia. Now it is, what it is :|
We are trippin about noise?
? Noone could sit with me in same room with this GPU more than one minute. Its nature of sound frequency, that microphone can't catch this so easily, and you have to put 100% volume on your playback device to hear 80-90% of what I hear all around inside room.

@@vlad_8011 thank you , I won't.
These type of softwares cause more issues than being beneficial.
I'm considering buying this GPU because it's cheaper than rtx 3080 and cost the same price as an rtx 3070 ti here in my country , I just couldn't find any reviews for the Z model and I heard some people are complaining about high junction temp and quality control issues. That's why I'm asking you.
@@karimberrahal536 Difference between junction temp and core temp shouldnt be more than 17 degree - then everything is fine. You can also select Gaming X, but Gaming Z have more possible higher GPU clock. You can allways lower it to your need, but its sure it will go higher in case you will need it in future.
As for performance - i had both 3080 and now 6800 XT and without RT, and resolutions FHD and 1440p this radeon is mostly beating 3080. Not to mention power consumption, which on power limit -3%, 2250Mhz 1050mv take less than 200W. 50-60 Core temp, up to 70 junction temp max are my result.

They changed the pcb over time to save money it's not same card as it show in reviews last year or so
