Open Notepad. Maximize it. If you get the buzzing it's probably a monitor issue.

If you don't, the buzzing is probably caused by Flash on webpages. In which case it's a video card or cpu induced buzz.

I have heard that particular issue many times with that monitor. Do you have dynamic contrast enabled? Is it always there when you're just on the webpage or when you scroll?

It is always on certain websites, with like certain colours/shades, the noise goes higher or lower, if i turn off 120hz this no longer happens

A dodgy power issue with the monitor then if changing the refresh fixes it.
