Anyone noticed a faint buzzing/electrical noise during high CPU load?

I have the Sony Style Cover SCR32 as well, this cover seems to make it even worse (might have something to do with the magnetic lock?)

Sometimes I can even hear it while scrolling in Chrome.
If I put my ear to the top of the tablet (where the SCR32 lock is located, just above the front camera) the noise is almost always present.

It sounds very similar to what’s described in:

So could this be a “normal” thing for this tablet or should I consider returning it?
