Apply for an RMA,it might cause serious problems later after a few months but before you do that,try re-installing the card,there's no logical reason as to why I am suggesting this but who knows... if you're lucky the noise might go away....

If you choose not to RMA, then remember that whine. Because if you stop hearing it, then you might have a problem. Cuz its possible its the coil on the fan. And if you dont hear it or that fan.. card might over heat. I'd keep an eye on it.
