Computer makes ticking sound when set to sleep mode

I having issue with my computer which occurs when I'm putting it into sleep mode. When it turns off after a second or two it's starts ticking (from how I hear it's from PSU) and fans (both cpu and gpu) are moving like they get power spike to start spinning, but not enough to keep spinning.
What could be a reason?

PSU: Logic 600 (but in fact it's 580W)
MB: ASRocK N68C-GS FX
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 945
GPU: GF GTX 660

The GPU is new, because last one was using too much power and burned PSU (which I exchanged on warranty). Is the PSU too powerful for new, less power consuming set (I highly doubt that, but with computers everything is possible :p)?

Did u noticed I have AMD processor?
Besides on previous set which was different only by GPU (which was GF GTX 480) I could let computer sleep without such issues.

So I came to conclusion that the reason is this GPU somehow making power supply going into power spikes. But I have no idea if there're some options to overcome this...

Label on my PSU says:
V ~ | Voltage Current Frequency
Input | 230V 6A 50Hz
______________________________________
V--- | 3.3V | 5V | 12V1 | 12V2 | -12V | 5VSB
Output | 23A | 24A | 18A | 16A | 0.8A | 2.5A
______________________________________
Max | 180W | 400W | 9.6W | 12.5W
| 580W |

I'll remind it's Logic 600 ATX 12V 2.2 Compatible.

If I understand what you saying then it means I have this 2x 12v rails.
I wonder then how I can override that... Since it takes power through the PCI-E and through 6 pin (which is part of the PSU). And I don't have cables to turn one molex into 6 pin (I know it doesn't cost much, but I'm out of money atm).
