Probably won't help, actually - the whine is more likely a dying capacitor on
the analogue board and/or the flyback transformer vibrating at very high
frequency.  The latter might be fixed by inserting a piece of nonconductive
material into the loop of the flyback, but the former will require replacement
of the failing part.

The 580, incidentally, is unique among the colour AIOs and doesn't share parts
with the earlier 5xx-series Macs.
