So when I play like titanfall or Warthunder I notice that my GTX 780 gives off a little coil whine and can be loud at times. I have had the card for about 3 months and just finished buying all of the parts to my build so I just put it in to try it out. When I run MSI Kombustor it gives off a lot of coil whine while running one of the presets. Is there any way to fix this? can running it for a long time help?

Set Up

AMD fx-8350
Rosewill Xreme 850w PSU
Corsair Vengeance 16gb RAM
Gigabyte 990fx motherboard
WD Black 1TB HDD
ADATA 256gb SSD

Is it still on warranty? If so, rma it through the shop you got it from. There's no way to confidently fix something like that. Headphones?

I'm really sensitive to high pitched noises to I might be over reacting. Buy why exactly do graphic cards get coil whine. BTW my fps is always 60. I'm also looking to upgrade my cpu to a i7 4790. Good?

Like a transformer hum but higher frequencies. Changing magnetic field from coil chokes (filters) moves the coil around if its not stakes to the pcb real well.
