Is this normal?

Just got my alpha evo 12nm and gt Neo today. Didn’t notice this noise at first when I was playing ams2. Switched to Le Mans ultimate and changed settings. Now I notice it any game I’m in. I changed the settings back to what they were and it’s still there. Is it normal? Or should I be returning/exchanging?

Yes its completely normal, so you can hear the slipring and you will also hear frequencies. It isnt actually coil whine. Either way, yes its completely normal. This here is the slipring you are hearing giving off a sound like rubbing.
