I am getting some very "staticy" sounding buzz when i either put a game on or run a 3d modelling program. I wouldn't say it was high pitched in any way, just like the sound you would get if you had a Live wire with electricity zapping out the end lol.
The buzzing does change ever so slightly when i move my mouse in the game or if it goes from the loading screen to actual game play.

I did do some reading and thought it might be coilwhine, but it wasn't as high pitched as some of the videos ive watched on it.

It is also worth noting that as soon as the game closes, the noise dissapears
 
I heard the same thing a few weeks ago, I had never noticed it because any intensive games etc I was playing I had headphones.

Its coilwhine and nothing to worry about. :)
 
Yep. I have it on my 770 Lightning. Mine changes frequency according to the frame rate of the game that I'm playing too (so if my game way running @47FPS then the whine would be a 47Hz :mad:
