Too bad many you don't have a microcenter near you. The prices are usually on par with what you can find on the internet, and the nerds there are way more knowledgeable than the best buy sales people.
There's only 25 stores nationwide: https://www.microcenter
Im returning both due to coil whine. (ONLY IN GAMES, desktop and browsing will be quiet)
Some fixes I tried but didnt work:
Really disappointed.
I had changed my power rail to 2 rails connecting the GPU to PSU. 1 Powerrail was fine for 3070ti.
Undervolting without losing performance. I am really sad this didnt work since this is a much stronger card than the 3070ti.
The noise is unbearable ahhhh. Its like sitting in a server room loud at your home desk.
I know its a better card and even with the coil whine had more FPS in-game. I still have a good 3070ti to go back on so I will be returning both of them to the Tustin Microcenter.
If someone wants to give them a try, I will be returning them tonight and they will probably be sold as open-box. The open-box that I got was $563, SUCH A SHAME THEY HAD SUCH LOUD COIL WHINE AAHGHHHHHHH.
MY monitor is also freesync and 3070 cant really utilize it fully. Gonna have to wait til blackfriday for nother shot most likely.

Is the coil whine worse than gaming on a laptop, where they all sound like rocketships taking off?

Well After putting in my 3070ti that wasn't coil whining, IT NOW COIL WHINES.
