Souds like you are getting "coil squeel" it is caused by the coils on the mobo vibrating fast and making the squeeling noise, and im afraid theres not a lot you can do about it apart from live with it, i get it on my old AM2 giga board when under load, it is annoying but not dangerous, buying a new board is the only remedy if it bothers you that much.

Tip: BD is slow....that's why it flopped.
 You'll need to get it up around 4.5GHz to match the performance of your old X4 chip. |
