Hello,
I've made a couple of posts in the past regarding this problem.
I have a Nvidia Geforce MSI GTX 660TI Twin Frozr Power Edition graphics card and it is making a rattling/grinding/grating noise
NOTE: IT IS NOT THE FANS
It only makes these noises during gaming, as soon as I minimize the noise stops, and the noise changed depending whats happening in game (If i look at the sky the noise reduces slightly) it also changes when you fiddle with the video settings such as vsync, anti aliasing, texture quality ect ect,
The noise is defiantly not the fans as i have held them manually when the noise is happening and it doesn't change at all. The
Im also 100% certain its the GPU as i've tried a different GPU and there was no noise
I have also RMA'ed this card once, then the guy wrung me who was testing it said that he couldn't re create the noise, so they sent it back to me.
What i think maybe causing it would maybe be the relation ship between the GPU and another component, possibly the Motherboard or the PSU.
My computer specs are:
-ASUS P8P67-M MOBO
-750W Modular Powercool eXtreme Power PSU
-i5-2500k 3.30 GHz CPU
-Nvidia Geforce MSI GTX 660TI Twin Frozr Power Edition GPU
-8 Gigs of DDR3 RAM
-Windows 7 64 Bit
At idle my GPU sits around 30 Degrees and during gaming goes up to maybe 58-60ish Degrees and my CPU idles at 32-34 and goes up to 55-60
Here's a video i recorded on my phone, i know there's quite a lot of fan noise but during the video i do manually stop the fans and you can hear it crackling, it sounds alot like when you run your finger along a metal fence and it vibrates.

Any help would be much appreciated
