My Gigabyte R9 280X is making vibrating noises at full load. Sounds like coming from the plastic surrounding the fans. It disappears when I touch it or move it.... comes back soon after. Its getting annoying.

Anyone else experience the same thing?

The fan casing shouldn't vibrate this much. Best to go and RMA it. By the way, I noticed you're running Crossfire. Is the problem with both or just one?

Its only one of the cards. The other one runs "quietly" at full load.
