My Corsair TX650 produce this boring noise and i’ll change it with a new one. I’m thinking to the Seasonic X-650… how Seasonic behaves about electrical noise?
My configuration is: Intel Core i5 750@3.8: G.SKILL ECO DDR3-1600 - Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4 - Scythe Mugen 2 rev.B - Gainward GeForce GTX460 GS 1GB - INTEL SSD 80GB X25-M G2 - Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB Sata2

Thanks
 
Coil whine varies from unit to unit and there is no guarantee that you will get a PSU without it. It's down to luck of the draw. The better choice in your case would be to send your TX650 in to Corsair and have it replaced, hopefully with another unit that doesn't have the issue. That way, at least you wouldn't have to buy a whole new PSU.

yes but i can't remain without pc during the RMA and i want a new brand psu.
 
Some Seasonic power supplies are prone to whine with some components - for example, Gigabyte X58A motherboards. I switched to OCZ.
 
Like a few have said, it's a combination of parts.

For example, on my backup rig my GTX 470 was causing my XFX Black Edition 750w to squeal under GPU load. However, I just recently replaced the card with my 5870 and the PSU doesn't squeal anymore.
 
ok, i'll try with a new Seasonic psu and if necessary with the replaced corsair, hoping that the noise disappears.

For what it's worth, Corsair usually sends back brand new, sealed units through their RMA program. I've had the luxury of dealing with them on two occasions and both have resulted in new items - one was an HX750 and another was a set of DDR2 Dominators. ;)
 
Talk to Corsair about this Issue. PM redbeard. He will square it out for ya.
