After curing and reassembly, I can confirm that I cannot hear the noise unless I remove the PC door and put my ear directly up to the GPU. I would say this was a raging success!
And obviously avoid gluing over stuff that comes in contact with thermal pads; super glue is not a conductor, but it would insulate your chip from the heat transferrance of the thermal pad.

Doubt it would work. Even gel-type super glue is said to be too thick (viscous) for the application, let alone RTV.Apply RTV low viscosity silicone to the inductors (all). Like this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...order_list.order_list_main.290.21ef1802T9JEa8
Could work, maybe not. I suspect the casing of the inductor is used as part of the "core" and grinding on it would change the induction characteristics. It might help, it might hurt, but I personally wouldn't do it.Perhaps I can attempt to grind the top of the inductor and then apply the silicone. I have ordered some sample inductors on the internet where I can practice. However, this is VERY risky, and I am hesitant to proceed with this method.
Some here have had a lot of luck with that. I would say it is a good first step, unless your card is already denuded, then try the super glue first as it would be cheaper.Add ferrite beads to the PCI-E power cable???
The bottoms are generally open. However, putting it in a full vacuum chamber would only tend to harden most silicone based RTV, as it would evaporate off the acetic acid much quicker. I doubt it would help draw into the inductor as there is no suction up into it, just general low pressures.Put the PCB into a vacuum chamber (I created one) so that the silicone can potentially penetrate the inductor. However, I am unsure whether the bottom of the inductor is open or not....
Could work, but I don't think I would be able to help you find the right ones. From what I see, it tends to be the random combination of PSU and GPU that causes coil whine. New inductors may or may not help with that.Solder out the inductors and replace it with a quality ones. However, I can't download the datasheet for the current ones, so I don't know which inductors I can replace them with.
Would help with the whole inductors vibrating, but if the coil is hitting the core it won't help much. It would of course absorb some vibration.Also put thermal pads on top of the inductors so they will be attached to the GPU water-cooling block and reduce the vibrations.
