I bought an Asus Nvidia 260 GTX yesterday and I stuck it in today. However it seems that when ever i put my GFX card under stress like Benchmarking or graphically intense games the card begins to squeal. The harder the card needs to work the higher the squealing gets. I've looked around on goggle and it appears a lot of people are having the same problem. It really isn't annoying when it is a quiet squealing sound but it is rather noticeable when it gets louder in my silent machine.

Is there any solutions anybody knows of? I really don't want to RMA because the card still works fine.
 
That would seriously get on my nerves. To be honest if you can't find a fix, I'd be returning that beastie for RMA quick smart!
 
Ye, it is getting on my nerves and I have only owned it for 6 hours. I think my PSU is fine since it is a Corsair 650w. Im just not in the mood to RMA it and wait so long.
