I was bored this morning and looking through my library i noticed that my old copy of Train Sim 2012 is now the brand new Train Sim 2013. so i thought i would try it

but as soon as i started the game my graphics card was making a high pitched sound, so i went to afterburner to monitor what it could be and i was seeing my frame Rate hitting nearly over 4000 FPS. now surely this is not normal, and i checked the settings in game and there were no settings that looked odd, admittedly I'm not expert to this


Any idea what it could be
 
Yes.
Modern craphics cards, suffer capacitor squeal, when they are generating very high FPS.
I dont think it will cause any long term problems to the graphics card.
But in Graphics setting of Train Sim, look for V Sync option, an enable it.
It will limit your FPS to the native screen, so 60-120FPS typically, an your GPU will no longer make this sqealing noise.

Ive looked around in the settings and there is no v-sync. i wouldnt mind giving this game a go, as i got a 3 yr old, who is at the stage where he loves trains. but as also mentioned i dont want to burn out my GPU trying to do so
 
If vysnc is not a graphics option in game, then force it at a driver level either via the AMD/ nVidia control panel or via a third party program like d3dOverrider.

It should be in settings some where.
All modern pc games (Past Ten Years) all have a v-sync option.

If it doesn't;
Your ATI/Nvidia/Intel drivers, will have the option to force v-sync in winows or specific games.

There is no V-sync option to be found anywhere in the menu. its rather annoying now

and doing via CCC doesnt seem to do anything either
