Someone is asking about the origin of these noises, noting they aren't related to load. It seems some games trigger them while others don’t. The system feels too powerful for its workload. An AIO cooler was replaced before, which helped for a few months but then it started again. Any advice or information would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's not Tim's Hardware after all. You may wish to eliminate some assumptions by rolling an A4 sheet into a cylinder and listening with one ear while holding the other to detect the sound source.

When sharing troubleshooting threads, it's standard to provide complete system specifications. List them clearly as follows:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
Include the PSU age along with its make and model.
BIOS version for your motherboard at this time.

Honestly was a mistake :] I swear.
I couldn’t believe the paper trick worked—I thought you were joking with me.
Specs are:
CPU: intel i7 9700k
GPU: nvidia geforce rtx 2060
Motherboard: mag B365M MOrTAR
I’m sorry, everything is hard to find and I really don’t want to open the PC just to check the PSU. Hope this helps.
😉
After putting my ear to a sheet of paper, the issue seems to be with the GPU—any reason it could have done this? Is there a fix?
