Is this coil whine?

Only happens during GPU load and it gets crazy if I run a furmark test.

And this sound is coming from my mic, I can hear it slightly, but any kind of sound is louder than that sound.

No, coil whine is a single frequency without interruption. Is the noise coming from the PC or the speakers? If the PC, I'll suggest isolating the source of the noise by listening through a paper towel tube (with the side panel off)

It's coming from the mic, as in, I can only hear it if I play back the audio and ofc everyone on skype/mumble etc

Not Coil whine for sure.

So most likely it's the headset? Cause I'd hate to go into the store and have them look at me with a judging kind of look and go "you gotta be kidding me"

It could be the result of one of your headset's settings, sample rate or some such, I think I'd play with the mic settings before concluding the headset is at fault
