Weird noise only when running Mabi?
Hello. So I've had the problem for years that whenever I start Mabi, there's a noise on the title screen coming from my PC. I read that this is due to uncapped FPS and it never really bothered me because it was just on the title screen. However, since the last update (I believe), there's a "crispy" noise coming from my PC once I start Mabi, and that noise stays as long as the game is running. I believe until a little while ago, that noise was only during the title screen and disappeared once I logged in. I play some other, much more graphic intense games, during which my PC stays completely quiet.
Anyone knows why this is and how to fix this? The noise is bugging me. I already tried using a program to cap my FPS at 60 because it apparently helped others with a static noise during the title screen, but it doesn't help.
The noise also disappears when I minimize Mabi. I thought maybe it's a fan or something else spinning, but Mabi is the only program/game I constantly hear that noise, no matter what other programs (Photoshop, etc.) are running, that are using up way more resources than Mabi should ever be using.

I know that before I hated the noises on the loading screen, but I knew they would disappear once I login. Now it's like they stay. I'm easily bothered by noises.
It's not a case of asking more of your resources, in the case of Mabi it's actually run away frame rate, vsync has never worked on the login screen, thus your actually getting in the 1000s of FPS. Mabi is the only game in my library that makes my 2080 Ti scream like a banshee while on the login screen (pushing around 4950~5000fps according to steam overlay), then quiets down after fully logging in. Only option to really force it to go away is to force vsync through your GPUs control panel.
I also tried switching between windowed and full screen mode, but that doesn't seem to make a difference either. Really, it wouldn't bother me as much if it was just on the title screen. I guess I just want it to overall run quietly because I usually leave Mabi running the whole day, and constantly minimizing it can make it crash. This never bothered me before, so I truly wonder if a recent update changed something.
