Is my Gigabyte 3060 supposed to make this noise when playing games?

Yet another noob question...

When I am doing regular tasks and even rendering videos, my GPU is being all normal and quiet. However, upon running Unity- or Unreal-engine type games, this noise happens.... Is it normal that it makes this noise, or? If not, how do I fix it? There is nothing touching the fan that I can see... Here's the sound: https://streamable.com/80f89i
 
Coil wine, or a fan flutter or case vibration.
 
Most likely is coil wine and if it is probably you can't do nothing about it but check your coolers clean them and lubricate/re oil them from the back side could be a dry fan motor that produce that kind of noise
