Hello, I'm trying to understand a peculiar issue I'm facing.
The system is only a few months old, yet problems have emerged early on.
I'm using an ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO motherboard with an Intel Core i9 13900k processor.
Memory setup includes two 16 GB Kingston Fury 6000 Mhz modules.
The liquid cooling unit is connected to the CPU header, but I suspect it might not be related to the pump.
I'm uncertain if the noise comes from the graphics card, though I recently replaced the card with a new one and still experienced this issue.
The power supply is a Dark Power Pro 11 750w model, which makes a faint sound, but I don't think it's the source.
Anyone else have encountered a similar problem? Do you know what might be causing it?

Use an A4 sheet, roll it into a cylinder, and place one end near your ear while holding the other to locate the noise's origin. Check the back of the motherboard as well.

It looks like the audio might be coming from the graphics card.

I had to perform numerous tests to understand what was happening.
I believed I had a cooling issue with the cooling pump coil.
I thought it might be related to the video card.
I was concerned about the power supply, but not the motherboard.
I removed the video card and connected the HDMI cable to the iGPU.
I turned off the cooling for a short time to check if that resolved the problem.
To my surprise, even after that, there were some low squeaks.
Could this be due to transistors on the motherboard?
XMP is manually enabled at 5600, matching the processor frequency as recommended by Intel.
MCE is disabled – Intel stock limits.
Any suggestions about what might be wrong?
Thanks.
