UPDATE!:
i done one test! as my Monitor is only 60Hz only! i found the mistake in the game! it was set on 144 frame per sec.. now what i done is i set to 60 Fps limit and guess what.. its smooth but little tears screen..which might be ok better then lagg and the sound of PSU is little less then before..
emmmm! thats makes me think might i forceing the graphic card to syn with my 60 Fps monitor ? and that cause the noise which is still there but little less when i switch to 60 Fps limit only! ?
note.. noise is still there but little less now.

Run Aurora with side cover off and isolate the noise. Is it a "mechanical noise" or coming over the speakers? I guess you could also disconnect the speakers to find out.
The only "power supply noise" I know of is ... the power-supply's fan-bearing ... mine sounded like a geiger-counter.
A lot of us Aurora-R6 owners got our bad 850w Huntkey PS replaced with Delta-made 850w. It fixed it instantly (of course). Mine is till fine 1-year later.
