Hey guys, I recently purchased the 1080 and I have been experiencing this buzzing sound from the gpu, this is happening only during games. I know it is coming directly from the gpu as when I had my 290 in there was no noise. I have looked around and cant find anyone with this card who has the same issue.

PC parts:
AMD FX 8350 (Yes I know bottleneck, I will be upgrading to 6700k soon)
Asus Crosshair V Formula Z
Corsair 12 gb ram
Corsair RM 850

I understand it may be coil whine but if anyone has a solution I am all ears.

not the same card but can have the same issue may be a bad pump ? bad fill from the factory ?

you can see a few evga hybrids get this as well

thing is like me that's not working as I expect [ I got a evga hybrid] and would return it if I could not easily resolve from steps to do for this ? mine runs quite and cool 48c max

thing I did not like with gigas is that its a hand me down AMD furry cooler and that was a issue with them as well

from that review

One thing that doesn't show up in the tests is the pump gurgling. Over an extended period of usage, the Gigabyte pump will occasionally gurgle and 'burp,' as if it's routinely sucking air through the system. This occurs even with the tubes mounted per manufacturer spec to reduce noise. On our loaner test unit, the issue was not constant, but did occur frequently enough to notice. This card is actually the reader's second unit, because the first made loud enough noise to warrant an RMA by Sean
