Just installed the gtx 970 ftw acx 2.0 I purchased two months ago since I was waiting for a new psu to go on sale  (Thanks VegetaCreeper again for the free backplate!) The 850 GS went on sale and I snagged it. Everything runs great but my OCD kicked in and heard the annoying buzzing noise.  Does anyone have a fix to this? I recorded it for you guys to listen. It sounds louder in real life.

    A fix? No, not really, but to be honest I did an RMA on my card for coil whine and it was an EAR so it was free one my end. The new card they gave me is a lot better (70%) but it's still not silent when it gets 600fps, but I guess it's normal now for GPU's to have coil whine. Otherwise, you can enable vsync which will generally prevent it but will also cap your FPS at 60 which is all you can get on a 60hz monitor anyway or you can ignore it and close up your case more. Other than that, you just gotta live with it.
