EDIT SOLUTION: I left the motherboard speaker hooked in and for some reason it was going nuts and making that sound. Sigh lol
Just finished a fresh build for the wife. A 'whine' noise is coming from the computer and the wife thinks it's bad. I hear it but, it doesn't concern me. Either way, I'd just like to check with you aces to see if this noise should be cause for concern?
