    Noise from Power Supply


    Hello, I am starting to hear this weird buzzing noise coming from the back of my power supply, I'm not sure if this is a normal kind of noise that comes from the back of a power supply when its turned on or if its something that I should worry about. I don't know if its the components inside of that power supply that are working and suppose to make that high pitched buzz sound, kind of like when your inside of a school gym and you hear that sorta buzzing noise coming from the lights, that's the best way i can describe the noise to you. I've put the speaker of my phone closer to the back of the power supply so that you'll hear that strange buzz noise coming from the back, if you listen carefully.


    Should power supplies really be making that sort of buzz sound like how mine is? or is there a sound worse that this that I should be more worried about other than the sound that I am hearing and is this the normal operational sound a power supply should make when its turned on? Lastly, have you ever encountered a power supply making a noise that is much worse than the one I am hearing now? I don't know if i should RMA or replace this power supply or even keep it if the noise I'm hearing is considered "normal"

    My powersupply is a EVGA - SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

    I'm using Windows 10 version 1903 (pro Edition)


    I did post a video on youtube to show you the noise that I am experiencing, you can find it here:



    if there is any information you can provide me with in regards to this noise greatly appreciated, I just discovered this noise last night and it's making me feel very anxious and worried about it.


    Thank you in advance for your help! Noise from Power Supply :)

    :)

    Power supply noise

    Guys, I built this PC about 2 years ago. Since about a week or so the power supply in it started making this noise. I'm guessing it's a fan. I tried to record it with my phone:

    Any idea if I can repair it without buying a new power supply?

    The power supply is EVGA 1000 G3.

    Hi Mikky,

    To get better clarity on the issue, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Have you installed any software or programs on your computer prior to this issue?
    • What was the last thing you have done on your computer before this issue happened?
    Since this issue occurs every time you connect or disconnect the computer to the power supply, we suggest you run the Power troubleshooter. To do this, follow the steps below:

    • On the Start menu, type Troubleshooting.
    • On the left-side, click View all.
    • Select Power and run the troubleshooter.
    If the issue persists, then probably the issue is with a faulty driver. Kindly installed the latest chipset driver for your computer. For better assistance on installing the right driver, we suggest you to contact your PC manufacturer.

    Should you need further assistance, feel free to get back to us.
