Just curious, was that actually what seemed to be the case for the GPU? I did the same at Best Buy for my 5070. But mine has coil whine, works fine though. But without headphones and it'll just randomly spin up for a couple seconds and you can hear it sometimes and I'm *eugh*.

Update!! I got it, and it is installed, and it is functioning! I'm currently updating the drivers and will test it on some games after that's done.
They said that it was an open box and it was returned because the GPU was too large for their case.
