Hi I have the Asus zenbook ux430UA- Dh74. - brand new. Im noticing a pretty loud coil whine noise upon startup and opening certain apps. If i turn on the camera its constant until i turn it off. Any fix for this or should i return it?
 
I have tried 3 ASUS UX430U laptops , two of them were i7-8550 and one i5-8250U.
ALL of them had this annoying coil whine noise.
Sent them all back.
Looking for another brand..
