Sorry to interject but I found this thread very interesting - I've been wondering a lot about humidity lately too. I live in a 50s built house with brick walls that also get drippy (although by the sounds of it not as bad as OP) and I did start to worry for my electronics. I have a little...

I had an RMA in January and it took something like 15 days so you're probably not far off having your computer back. I got a status update the day before they dispatched it which had details on the fix and the ability to reply directly to the technician :) Before that mine just said "received"...

Interesting to hear of a similar issue although I think they may be of a slightly different nature. Is yours more to do with monitoring? I don't get the mouse interference (I have heard of this happening on audio PCs before - tbh it's probably more easily resolvable than mine) @Scott No...

I thought you were just describing the standard Capellix bubbly hum (which can be a little annoying if silence focused) but your video sounds a lot worse than the original example you first posted. Definitely something majorly wrong there.

Pickups were my first thought too but the hum is totally gone when using a different computer which makes me think it's unrelated. I was using a Strat in the clip posted above.

Not sure that would be connected unless somehow inside the mobo it's managing to bleed across? This is the kind of noise I'm getting: https://voca.ro/1lj8xyg8xr6c Mains hum sort of thing. And it's pretty specific because I only observe it when I connect up electric musical instruments with...

Cheers Spyder, will do! I've been in touch with PCS already and they've been good with the troubleshooting ideas. They want me to try taking the PC down to the kitchen (hope my back doesn't give out lugging the Fractal down the stairs haha) just to confirm it's not the electrics in my house. But...

Cheers for the replies. Touching the case or the metal part of my desk gives me static discharge type shocks if I'm also holding my guitar. PCSpecialist advised me to look for any loose cables but everything looked really neat and tidy in the back. Nothing protruding. I'm kinda baffled by...

Hi folks. Aiming this more at the audio crowd I suppose: I bought a PC from PCS in the summer for the purpose of audio production. Performance is brilliant but I've been having major issues with loud ground hum when recording instruments into my interface. At first I thought the issue was with...

I think reviews are referring to the fans being quiet. For a lot of people their other system sounds probably mask the noise of the pump. Keep us updated though as I'd definitely be intrigued if a future RMA has a positive effect. All the Capellix boys coming out the woodwork for this one eh...

Oh yeah, just to be clear on my original thread from August I had a few other unrelated setup issues so our situations aren't exactly identical. But I definitely have the same noise demonstrated in the video you posted in your opening post which is why I chimed in. :) I did return it to PCS...

I doubt there's anything wrong with it. I've got the same cooler and have had the same noise unchanging since my PC was built in August (if you click my posts I made a similar thread back in August about it). It's very good at cooling but definitely a bit of a noisy beast. There's a massive...

Bit of late night (early morning?) tinkering because I can't sleep lol. Pleased to say I've sorted the issue with the rear fan. Think I understand the Nexus setup now. Had to play around in BIOS - the auto calibrate thing proved to me the rear fan can be regulated because I could hear it...

An update on this and a technical question! Ended up returning the whole PC for the RMA due to the cooler problem which PCS agreed sounded faulty, also because I was still umming and ahing about possibly getting a refund on it if they were unable to fix the problem so thought it best to send...

It's the actual fan of the GPU as far as I can tell as it goes away once I physically stop it. Thanks for all the help Spyder and co!
