Weird buzzing noises

[adih2001]

I have a very weird problem! Sometimes when I play games that are intensive my computer makes weird buzzing noises. Sometimes the buzzing can appear in a game when I am moving the mouse. The noise comes from inside the pc. The mouse is fine and I got it new. And sometimes the buzzing can have higher pitch in some game when I look up or down... The buzzing might come from graphics card, CPU fan or the PSU fan.... I don't know exactly. When I don't play games the buzzing doesn't appear.
PC Specs:

• 
  Motherboard: MSI Z97 GAMING 5
  Graphics card: MSI GTX 970 G4 (Not the LE version)

I don't know exactly the rest.. But you can ask me the part that you want know and I will answer you! Pls help me!

I personally would start up the computer, open up the case and listen out for where exactly it may be coming from, then check if this part is properly plugged in. Look at the fans specifically, see if they're catching on any loose cables. (Happened to me before cause I don't have modular).

Wild guess I think it may be the graphics card since it controls the display and you moving up or down is display, I ain't entirely sure just try and find out where the buzzing is coming from when you play your game

Its the video card's coil whine. It is a common issue with the 970s unfortunately. 🙁 My 970 does it as well.

Coil whine.

Make sure vSync is ON. Force it in the driver control panel if you have to. This will minimize the issue.

If it doesn't get better, most manufacturers will let you RMA the card and exchange it for another for coil whine.

I dont think is any kind of pc fan... For example in TF2 and I it runs in background and I am on google chrome when i move the mouse a buzzing sound comes... it could be the GPU...

After activating vSync it seems that there is not any deference but is not really buzzing is ritmic buzzing and i think is coming from the GPU. Thanks for the help. I know that this cant be fixed 🙁 but is not really loud for me.

Did you see if the buzzing also occurs in plain windows operation? Like, opening menus and scrolling throught its items?
