The CPU is producing a high-pitched hum similar to coil whine, but with a lower tone and shifting frequency. No other component seems responsible—just the processor itself.

Coil whine often appears at a reduced frequency, suggesting it might be coming from the speaker rather than the fan or audio equipment.

^^^ My 2060 Super and RVII both made/make (I don't have the RVII anymore) a low buzz when on waterblocks. If nothing else in the system is making noise and there's a low buzz or whine, it's likely some coils around the CPU VRMs.

I'm sure it's the CPU because SSDs can occasionally make noises.

The sound is coming from the CPU, not the SSD, which is far away from it.

It seems the power supply near the CPU might be causing the issue.
