Why does Sims 3 sounds like it's killing my system?

When I start to play sims 3 my systems starts making sounds similar to this guys system:

My computer doesn't struggle with any other games and so can't understand why this is happening.

My systems specs:

Corsair Builder Series CXM 750W Modular 80 PLUS Bronze

G.Skill 8GB (2x 4GB) Dual Channel Ares Series Memory Kit

Then VSync is turned off. Force it on in your graphics card drivers for this game. It cannot exceed your refresh rate (60 on almost all monitors these days) with it turned on.

Do you know how to do it on AMD cards ? If so, could you post instructions ?

I play Skyrim, Dishonored, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, Sniper Elite 3, The Walking Dead, Dragon Age, Minecraft and a few others. All of my hardware is running fine.
But yeah I've just decided to wait until Sims 4 is released, no point risking my system for a game that I won't play again in a couple months.
