PC hissing noises, maybe GPU?

Hi guys, yesterday everything was working perfectly fine, but this morning it looks like my BIOS got reset or something happened, and my PC started making some hissing noises.

 

Full specs: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Ley01/saved/GRP9GX

 

It might be the GPU (RTX 2060 Super), except when I stress test it, or my CPU, there are no hissing noises. But when I open PC Building Simulator (yeah...), the noise starts. It doesn't happen on every game, only 1 or 2 out of 4 I've tested.

 

I'm ready to RMA anything if needed. If it's coil whine, I know it's not dangerous but I need my PC to be as silent as possible.

 

Thanks for your help.

Sounds like coil whine. Try PC sim with V-sync.. (works sometimes)

You need to confirm the noise origin, either PSU or GPU.

How can I isolate the problem? 

Could I maybe try replacing my GPU with a 970 to see if it's the GPU? 

 

I'd be relieved if it turns out to be the PSU honestly. Maybe it could be it, since stress testing the GPU doesn't make it whine?

It's definitely the GPU.
