Move your cables around mate..... That will fix it. Had same thing its cables touching each other
Not PSU not GPU.

This happened to a mate of mine we all thought it was psu whine he was about to change it when he decided to reinstall his sound drivers and it worked they must have got messed up at some stage installing his new graphics card

Tried... no luck.

This was my first thought when it happened. Could not see anything touching but will have another poke

My power saving features were off already (I forgot to reactivate them when I was done overclocking).

What revision is your mobo? IIRC, rev1.0 have this problem and there is nothing you can do apart from trying an RMA. Rev2 boards had hardware changes made at production to reduce this MOFFAT whine.

Are you using a HDMi cable? Try Dvi and see what happens.

I fixed it by using a USB headset.

It's not really a fix. I don't think it even happens any more, can't remember why it used to with my onboard sound, or what fixed it.

Rev1.6.... are those affected?

I don't know about the 1.6,s ?

Your best bet is to go onto the Gigabyte Motherboard Forums and ask your question there.
A lot of users have the same problem with the x58/UD3's.
Professional and friendly from what I remember.

They (Forum Members) created a PSU list that identified certain Brands/Models that gave the coil whine.
