Ahey guys I posted a few times trying to get help, but proved unsuccessful.
But I just built my new rig everything seems to be running fine but when I run benchmarks like 3dmark which doesn't even run at 1080 in demo and games like cs go and dayz, my card starts making a whinning noise, I'm sure it's my card, but it's only when I run games and benchmarks, my games don't really go past 80 fps in 1080. So what could be the deal, should I rma or what? Please help me! I'm new to all this, I just want my baby to run happy and strong.

Here are the specs:
Mobo_Asrock z97 fatal1ty killer
Psu_Corsair cx600m
Gpu_Msi r9 280x
Cpu_i5 4690k
Ram_team Vulcan 2133mhz 2x4gb
Ssd_120gb
Hdd_1tb
Psu cooler_Corsair h60
Os_Windows 7 64bit
Thanks

It means either the coils are whining (which isnt bad, but annoying anyways) or its not receiving a stable power output from the PSU.
I'm not sure how good Corsair makes the CX series, but I assume they're good enough.
Downclock the GPU by 100-200MHz, and see if it still makes that sound.

Dont you think that will defeat the purpose of buying a 250 dollars card?. Its worth a shot, I'll try after work tomorrow, but it's doin this whine on everything I play no matter how high the fps, even on like 30 fps it still has its whine
