Anybody else have this annoying sound on the GTX 780? (Coil whine) with 200+ fps Should I swap the card?

Edit:
xd some of the people are useless on these forums no offense. Fixed the coil whine 100% everything on my motherboard was on the +12V1 rail I used +12V2 rail for the PCI-E power and it no longer makes that noise due to a better flow of electricity I guess

$550 Graphic cards shouldn't make this noise.

When I go into a game I get "coil whine" I guess. So the only way to make this sound go away is to turn vsync on and then you can't hear it because it locks your framerate at 60. However, if you minimize the game (even with vsync on) In bioshock infinite you can hear the coil whine again.

Do all gtx 780s make this noise when getting excessive FPS? Do you think I got a bad card that I should swap for a new one with newegg?

Please turn your volume up to 100% to hear it.

PSU: 850 WATT 22 AMPS on the +12V rail using 6 pin and 8 pin conntector to make 44 amps (42 amp minimum to run the card)
MB: Asus P8Z68-V LE all bios up to date
Case: Half 912 Coolermaster
Processor: Intel Core i7 2600k OC 4.3Ghz

GPU Purchased: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130916

I don't quite understand how you solved the issue you had (that I am also having right now), could anybody help me out? The answer is in the OP, but again, I don't understand.

I really do need help with this. I spent so much on my GTX 780Ti and I refuse to stick it out with the coil whine noise.
