I will respect your wishes, XanderF, to not discuss on the other topic. But I will say here that the squeeling issue is very minor on my machine. It's hardly noticeable. But nevertheless, it's still there. Frankly, it doesn't bother me that much. But if there's a way to eliminate it, I'd certainly like to know.
Well, the primary clue would be - when you take the video card out, and use the onboard video, it goes away.

Now, I could see your question being 'is it perhaps the PCI-E slot on the mobo?'....which is certainly valid. Except there isn't really anything regarding that which *could* cause this problem, changing a video card setting makes it stop (enabling 4xAA), and the sound *sounds* like it is coming from the video card.
