coil whine , its not bugging me when its already in case but when u get closer about 3inch away i can hear very tiny noise.
pc spec:
asus pv8z77 -v
8gb
650w antec earthwatts platinum
 
If its bad enough its a valid reason to return the card, if it doesn't bother you, keep it. Chances of getting coil whine on a card as fast as a 670 is pretty high, you can try and get rid of it by messing with clock speeds, bump it up/down and see how the sound changes.

Are you 100% sure it's coming from the GPU? It may be coming from your power supply. I have had similar issues from Antec EarthWatts power supplies in the past.
