Windows 10: PSU Making continuous clicking sounds

I have a 500w 80+ bronze PSU power supply in my gaming pc , it's brand new around 20-30 days old now and every time I boot into windows it starts making this continuous clicking sound that never stops until I turn off my pc, when I turn it off it slowly dies down until it stops, can't hear it when the pc is off, it's only when it first boots into windows and for the whole time it's on in windows, when it's off it stops. Works perfectly fine it's just that clicking noise that's starting to get on my nerves

PSU emiting continuous high-pitched sound

Well someone from the Thermaltake forums says that all TT PSUs are fully protected and will not damage any component in case of failure.

Anyway, he also suggested that the strange sound that stops at boot splash might not be the PSU after all, but the CPU's voltage regulator.

Should I try to jump-start the PSU to make sure the sound is coming from the PSU and not elsewhere ? Also, do I need any load like an optical drive in order to jump-start a modern PSU or not?

 

PSU emiting continuous high-pitched sound

then i'd say the PSU is dying. capacitors contain chemicals/liquid stuff. if they ever leak, they dry out - as they do that, they start making noise, and eventually they dry right up or burst. That happening while connected to a running PC = really bad for the PC in question, it can take out the whole PC.

I suggest replacing that PSU asap.

 

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
