Just realised that NGU causes quite a lot of coil whine, even when using it only for chroma. I bought a 1070 in black friday and didn't notice until I enabled NGU for my monitor the other day. What puzzled me is that I do GPU intense work and never had coil whine until this, I did a comparison rendering with GPU with Redshift and GPU-Z report is the same than with NGU, with further testings I found that the trigger was Memory Controller Load, at 25% it makes the buzz noise below or above doesn't, the problem is that NGU very high (above 25%) heats my card like a toaster (running it in a mATX case)
