Oh gosh, coil whine.

I had a Geforce 280 that would scream like hell whenever it was at full power and its framerate went below about 10 or above about 100 FPS. I was glad when it broke some other way and got replaced under warranty.

Same thing with my 280! Unfortunately it was a BFG, and the company folded about 2 days after I submitted my warranty claim.

Mine was an EVGA.
