Default Thermaltake 575W high pitch noise. Faulty PSU ?

Last fall I've bought Thermaltake Toughpower XT 575W (I was tempted that it was modular by good higher power units review).
It's been ok except high pitch noise emitted from it. I disregarded it because only situation I could hear it, was during microsoft windows experience index testing (dx9 gpu one).

Lately I've bought SSD and during AS SSD benchmark it happens again (most noticable during 4k data testing, don't know why).

I've posted on thermaltake forum but it seems to be dead.

Should I be worried and RMA psu ?

Coil whine. Rarely an issue unless it just bugs you.

There's absolutely nothing to worry about, unless that noise irritates you.

No. It doesn't. I don't run benchmark all the time and during normal use it is quiet. Thanks.
