I've listened to some Mac Pro systems at work and found them to be pretty darn quiet, except for one which sounds like a jet when playing games (as is customary whilst working ). That Mac Pro is differentiated from the others by having the X1900 graphics card installed. Man, that card's fan can scream when pushed! The PSU hum was barely audible. If it is objectionable, it may be faulty...

My Mac Pro makes almost no noise at all. So, yeah, may be something faulty or just not tightened properly.
