High Pitch noise from monitor on ocuk forums

Im getting a high pitch noise from my Acer GD 245HQ monitor when using the forums here?

Very strange dont get it on any other sites?

When i minimize the ocuk forums or load a different page the noise stops any suggestions why this is happening

maybe it's a weird thing relating to the blue colour scheme or something. try displaying some solid coloured backgrounds on the screen and see if you can re-create it. maybe changing the RGB sliders in the OSD or reducing the brightness might overcome it as well?

Ive now noticed this is happening on a few other websites as well.

This has only just started happening and was fine before thats what i cant understand,ive messed around with brightness etc but this hasn't changed nothing?

change it to 100hz see if it still does it, there was a guy here the other day who had two and they both did it

yeah the same using 100hz too, i might change power leads and dvi cables tomorrow and reset the panel back to factory settings and take it from there.

heard quite a few complaints about the buzzing on that screen but some have said it goes away after a while of use
theres even some complaining of buzzing in the OCuK reviews for it http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-049-AC&tool=3

My Samsung B2430 does this as well. Can only really hear it when the room is quite, If i adjust the brightness to %100 or under %60 it goes away.....

Are you sure it's the monitor? Lots of motherboard/VGA/PSU combinations make noise known as coil whine, which does vary according to what the system is doing at the time. Try going to the site then turning the monitor off to see if you can still hear it.
