Coil Whine + Visual Glitches - HELP

[jamie5lee]

My computer started having this issue where when I opened certain intensive games, I would get visual glitches and coil whining. Now, depending on the game only one happens, or the other or both. Also, the coil whining goes through my headphones. At least, I think it is coil whining. Its basically a screeching sound that keeps going until after a few seconds it'll mute all audio, showing back up a few seconds later. If I mute the applications audio it still screeches, sometimes it'll blast my audio so loud that its deafening. The audio also makes noises outside of games, like when I'm watching Netflix or YouTube, it'll do an occasionally popcorn crunch sound. I've tried a DDU, fresh install of drivers, reseating the GPU and that's all. I'd like to mention that I use HDMI audio and graphics. I also have a Bluetooth USB that I use to connect my wireless headphones, where I hear the "coil whining" from.

Honestly, I would just like some pointers to which part I should replace. From the research I've done online, it seems like a replacement is in order. I just don't know whether or not this is a graphics card issue, a PSU or motherboard. If anybody knows how I could deduce the issue I would be willing to try, but really I just want to replace parts and be done with it.
