I still listen to the noises. The cpu makes a unique whine when I highlight text.
Does it have the spacebar heating feature too?
Lol, this isn't part of my workflow! I just happened to notice it one day and was intrigued.
I actually do remember an experience much like yours.
20+ years ago when PC CPUs didn’t properly idle when they had no work to do, there was a program called rain that would issue the correct idle commands or something. It lowered temps!
But when this program was running, moving my mouse would make a slight hum or buzz. That one probably took a bit to figure out.
How could it distinguish between selecting text and other tasks?
I have no idea. It was just something I noticed. If I were to guess, it's just some odd combination of dust, resistance, and the architecture of the cores that causes a hundred little things to mesh together into a whine.
Does it also happen under load?
Through the boop boop
I could play music with my graphics card by moving the FPS cap slider... Coil whine is nuts.
