I recently built a new PC (5280k,Gigabyte 970, HX850). I noticed that only under load, both using Heaven benchmark and in games such as CS:GO, there is a high pitched screeching noise that is emitted. So after remembering that 970s have been known for having coil whine issues I swapped out my 970 for my old 670. The sound still persisted under load. I then swapped out my PSU (HX 850) for my old PSU (HX 750) and the sound continued. Using both my old PSU and GPU together, the sound still existed.
I then updated the firmware to my H100i after reading that old firmware can cause issues with the pump making noise and the sound was still being emitted. I also tried connecting the radiator's fans to the motherboard instead of the cooler's head and still no luck. The only thing that I can not swap out at the moment is my motherboard because I do not have a spare X99 on hand.
I am currently at a loss, the sound seems to be coming from the PSU but what is confusing is that the old PSU is making the same noise while in the new computer when it NEVER made the noise in my old PC. I will link a video that plays the sound. The beginning is at my desktop then the noise starts when I tab into CSGO.
I appreciate any help or advice.
