Nothing hitting the fan or anything?

On a serious note it could be nothing as i've seen threads on the OCZ forums about the 1000w unit making noises like that
From an OCZ rep:

The whine is caused by the dynamic load from the high end video cards because AMD and Nvidia don't do anything to control it. It is sort of a "feedback loop" in the 12V line

So likely its not an issue, however if you are annoyed i would RMA and maybe get a different unit.
