GeForce 7800GT OC Make Beeping Sounds?

I've got an odd beeping sound coming from my PC case when playing Guild Wars sometimes (yes, only Guild Wars...not even Oblivion). I shut down Guild Wars and the beeping goes away.

I get this hi-to-low tone beeping sound, but when I open up the mobo utility that monitors all the temp and fan states for the CPU and System temps are only at about 40C each, well below the warning level I set in BIOS (which was 59C).

So I'm wondering if it could be the video card that's giving off this beeping sound, indicating that IT'S overheating. I don't have a utility that monitors the GPU temp (or if this is even possible).

When I shutdown my PC the first time it happened and opened the case, sure everything was warm, but not overly hot to the touch. The GPU WAS the warmest component, besides maybe the PSU, but still, I could touch it with the back of my hand no problem.

I really need some help on this as I don't want to fry any of the expensive components I spent the last 6 months purchasing. Thanks in advance!!

PS: There's been NO overclocking on my part on ANY component.
