Must have been extremely bad luck to have 2 noisy P4's then. : )

Or maybe it's depends on the motherboard too?

I'm thinking you should try to put some EMI insulation somewhere on your mobo... I think there're parasites due to maybe some less good built tracks or something like that...

Weird, I've never heard of hissing sound from any processor. Are you guys for real. What could have made the sound?

The only thing I could think of is from "poor" grounding (earth wire) from:

1) Negative power line is not used.
2) Power Line is not grounded properly around the building.
3) Case is not grounded properly.

I remember a woman sueing Intel a while back because she claimed to get an headache from the noise her chip made. She lost, but she had a point.

I guess some ppl are really sensitive to high pitched noise.
