[sissj]

In games like Minecraft, When I look at the ground in heavily built area my  Graphics Card whines. any way to fix this? If I cant can I return the card?

• Cap framerate at monitor refresh rate

Heavier game settings (which lowers framerate --> Coil Whine is caused by too much FPS)

RMA

There isn't really a way to fix it, it depends also if your getting a crazy large FPS that can cause the coil whine to worsen at times. it can also be the combination of that specific PSU and GPU which can make it coil whine. 

As for RMA I think some might accept it.

Just limit the FPS on the game. If it's too loud, make some lame excuse and get it RMAD and get a new replacement.

Oh, 1500FPS.... When i stand still

Coil whine is just a natural phenomena. With the technology we have at our disposal now, there's really no way to fix it. They won't take it back unless if it was specifically marketed as 0dB or noiseless or something. You can see if capping your FPS helps. 

[Rolling Potatoe]

Yep its just your fps, just enable vsync.

No need to rma a perfectly working card.

Yeah thats why, many menus in my games do that and cause coil whine. It's fairly normal when you have extremely high fps like that.
