Default Whine when in high gears

Hey guys,

I noticed a whine when I hit high gears. Only 5th gear, and sometimes 4th. She only whine when I'm on the throttle, once I get off the whine disappears. The whine is more aggravating than anything, but there's also the fear that I'm damaging my car.

It sounds like it's coming from the transmission. And the gears haven't been touched.
