imma need some help

[just that pc guy]

soo what does it mean if theres a faint noise coming from the mobo or cpu, its like a electric sound of some sort

It's probably just coil wine. Electricity isn't silent, I wouldn't worry about it.

Is it a constant noise, or only occasional?

That's coil whine. You'll especially hear it while playing games at a high frame rate. Usually not much you can do about it. Changing the PSU may help, or trying a different PCIe port if available. My solution is to increase the volume in a game.

Nah it's normal. and actually there is something you can do about it. The source of the sound is interference from motherboard and GPU to your sound chip and/or route. If you used a sound card, or usb audio output. Then there wouldn't be any noise.
