Soo..

I have a Wei-ya chassis / Samsung Tube tri-sync monitor, after 30 mins or so when its warmed up I get this audible whining sound that happens in both 15k and 31k, its annoying to say the least as its loud enough to hear over the game even when the game is pretty loud.

How would I go about isolating the component which is causing the issues, I have been told its due to an oscillating component that starts to make noise when the monitor has heated up, it never does it first thing you turn it on in the day, but if you leave it on a bit, 95% of the time it'll happen after 30-45 minutes use.

Any ideas would be appreciated. thanks.

I wouldn't know where to put it if I'm being honest, my chassis obviously looks different to that :(
