Mine did for a little bit, but it doesn't do it anymore. I don't know what caused it. All I do know is that it's not anything bad happening to your card. Just the power stage doing its job.

Run F@H for 36 hours with lots of cooling. Get a desk fan and blow it at the gpu if you need. This has fixed coil whine for me many times

my card is coilwhining at only 35-45*C :( and i already got a fan blowing straight in my case atm.. it actually makes the coilwhining more loud by having a fan blowing onto it

Try limiting the framerate, may help.

run folding at home for 36 hours or longer though, just make sure it stays cool while doing so. Making the card run hard for that long gets the coils quieted down
