Hi,
I had a power outage recently, unfortunately it screwed up my PSU and damaged HDD. I dealt with those problems, however another thing I just recently noticed is a high-pitched buzzing noise my motherboard started to make. It happens only when GPU/CPU are stressed, for example during gaming. It's coming somewhere close from GPU but unfortunately I cannot pinpoint the exact location. It's definietly not my PSU or GPU (switched those and the sound was still there). It's very high frequency, sounds a bit like a whistle but with cracking electricity buzz added to it.
Interesting thing I noticed is that the noise reacts to me clicking my mouse. The frequency definietly changes when I click. Also the frequency depends on the game/program I run. There is no noise at all when I minimize the game to desktop. I noticed no performance drop at all. Everything is fine other than the irritating noise. My mobo is Asus M4A88T-V EVO.
Do you guys know what might be source of the noise, and whether or not I can somehow fix it?
