GTX 770 clicking sound

[Erection_Protection]

Sorry if this is the wrong area, couldn't see a help part while on my phone. There is a strange clicking sound coming from my GTX 770 when the fans are at 100% (video is here 

the fan makes this terrible noise. As tags suggest, the first person to give me a solution that works will get a gamma 2 case (sorry I am poor). Any help is apprieciated

Maybe it's due to vibration, GPU sag could be a problem.

It never had this problem in my inwin 805. Just in my corsair air 240 So how would I prevent sag? Just put a piece of plastic to support it? Or even a backplate?

I have an AZZA 202 Black EVO case which makes very similar noises due to the HDD vibrating sometimes. While this is occurring, touch various areas outside the case in an attempt to hold it still. If while resting your hand on the top or sides it stops then there's some vibration coming from that area. If not then maybe try using your finger to gently prop up your GPU. If it is vibration at all from something then sooner or later you'll notice the noise will stop once you put slight pressure on the effected area. Then just figure out a way to add some sort of rubber washer, GPU support or other non conductive, non flammable insulation to prevent it.

That sounds like something in the case vibrating.

that sounds more like coil whine?
similar to when i first got my evga gtx 770

i replugged all my power connectors to make sure they were firmly in place. 
I cant remember when the noise stopped for me 

i also thoroughly cleaned it

Yeah, I originally thought it was coil whine too. But when I removed the fans it stopped making the noise, and it's only when it is at 100% fan ty for help. I try to clean my PC once a month and there doesn't seem to be anything in the way

oh its only at 100% fan speed?
jeez then dont even worry about it
under the heaviest load my fan speed only goes up to like 70ish%
that noise shouldnt be a concern

Yeah, I just wanted to see if it was an easy fix, because I was thinking about selling it. Thanks anyway /:
