New motherboard choice

[steverebo]

Ok. So I'm forced to replace my Maximus hero VIII to rule it out in regards to coil whine in my system. I'm on a budget around £150 so what is a good comparable alternative to my current board in my price range?

I've looked at the Strix 270F and MSI M5 or Tomohawk and the ASROCK Z270 fatality K6

Which would be a good alternative or any other suggestions in my budget

I'm seriously considering the MSI M5 gaming and strix 270F

Why do you replace all the parts around GPU if GPU is the one with coil whine? Take it to a friend and you try it. Different mbo won't stop coil whine from GPU.

Been tested in another system and it's totally silent so I replaced my power supply and it still whined so I need to rule out the only other component my motherboard.

I still don't know in what possible way can MBO make GPU coil whine. Can someone enlighten me on that?

You is also powered by the pcie slot and also interacts with the caps on the motherboard all this interference can have the same effect as a psu

Severe coil whine is warranty supported in GPU's. Are you still within warranty?
