M1730 graphic card problem

Does anyone heard a noice coming from the "circuit board" of graphic card when you are running a game or during the gpu test in 3dmark? The sound like "si si si si" is quite annoying. I confirmed is not the problem of the fan of gpu.
Thanks.

Hi, I also hear that weird sound, but only when my fps is above 100-120-150fps. Interesting. :-)

When i look at the buttom of the notebook, the sound come out before the fan starts to run when I run the game or 3dmark06 gpu test. the sound is from the circuit board of gpu.

The sound comes from both the CPU and GPU at certain frequencies.
