Is there such thing as a loud motherboard?

 

How can a motherboard make a noise if there are no moving parts inside, just electricity flowing to various parts of the board.

Coil whine is possible on a mobo, but generally it doesn't happen anymore. Some boards have active cooling on them, but also, this is rare.

When in doubt, re-format.

Some motherboards have active cooling with a chipset fan although this is mainly server MBs
