AdamA Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Hi, my GS700 is making a buzzing sound. Its not particularly loud, but annoying. I have turned off Cool n quiet as I heard this could be a causes but it makes no difference what could be the issue? Also secondly, one of my corsair vengeance sticks arrived faulty - but they were purchased a year ago from Amazon, can I still RMA it. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please follow the tips outlined in the "noisy PSU" sticky first. If you still have problems we can go from there. http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=85166 As far as your memory is concerned, yes, memory has a lifetime warranty. Burt you will need to send back both sticks in the kit so you get a matched kit in return. Just use the link on the left to request an RMA.

Thanks for the quick reply, I have read through it already and I have tried turning off AMD Cool'n'Quiet and C1E, which didn't work. I then set it to High Performance both in my motherboard and Windows 7, and still the sound remained. I may just be over-reacting, so I've attached a video.

Not very happy with Corsair's quality although their RMA service is superb as they approved my RMA in 5 minutes. I don't think I will go through the effort of RMA'ing a second product though as I dont have the money to dish out on postage. To be honest, I dont think I will be going for Corsair products again because they dont seem to last long, which is a shame because they have a good reputation. If anyone can help me find out a fix to this I would be very grateful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
