I got the new razer blade 15 with rtx2080 max-q right after the release, and it has terrible coil whine. I spent the past month combating this issue by returning it twice and I am currently on my third unit which has the exact same problem. I found a fix for those who don't want to waste your time returning (cuz the new unit has the same problem as well). You can lower the cpu performance to 20percent during idle, such as web browsing, checking email, watching youtube, and put it back to 100 percent when you are doing content creation/gaming, because you wont hear the coil whine under heavy fan load. This method has been helpful for me to bypass this problem, I hope it will help yall. Leave a comment below if it helps u.
Here is how u can lower cpu performance to 20 percent (just change the max-performance to 20 instead of 100): https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/use-maximum-cpu-power-windows-10
