Hey all,

got a Gigabyte 560Ti and due to Diablo 3 coming out I decided to clean the insides of my PC out.

I simply removed all the dust and made sure it was all nice and clean, since then whenever I load a game up, be it Diablo 3, HL2 etc, I get this small tingling type noise for a few seconds then it goes away and when I close the game it comes and goes. Literally within 10 seconds or so.

I can only assume its the graphics card kicking in and then shutting down and aside from the little noise theres nothing else wrong, all games play fantastic on highest settings with no image problems.

I have Afterburner up and seems it starts the noise when the GPU Usage % starts and ends.

Any ideas or should I just accept this as the norm from now on?
