Do you not notice a high pitched whining noise whenever doingsomething graphically intense (lots of output steaming by etc)?
Its a known problem with these laptops and while I'm used to it now, I find it a bit annoying.
- bingo_cannon 9y agoWatching netflix is the most graphically intense thing I do so not really.
- houst0n_ 9y agoI don't hear it while audio is playing either since it's drowned out -- never do a build or something and hear it? It really annoys me, I'm surprised you don't hear it. Maybe not all devices are susceptible then?
- absove 9y agoThe XPS 13 looks like the perfect machine for me but all these coil whine reports scared me away from it. Then I found out a friend of mine bought one (the XPS 15 though), and when I asked him about it he said he never noticed anything. I really can't tell if it's only on some machines or if most people simply don't notice/don't care.
- jeffmama1111 9y agoThe XPS 15 does not suffer from coil whine. However almost all the XPS 13's will have it. Some will be quite others will be really loud. Its a gamble and shame on Dell for not fixing it after so many complaints
