PC Specs:
GPU: EVGA GTX 780Ti ACX SC
CPU: i5 3570K @ Stock speeds (3,4Ghz)
RAM: 16GB
PSU: Fractal Design Integra R2 750W 80+ Bronze
HDD: 2TB (Don't know exactly which one)
SSD: Corsair Force 120GB SSD
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V LK - ATX / Z77
As you can hear in the video, my PSU has this weird sound when my GPU is under load, like maybe it can't fully handle the power requirements of the GPU :/ I don't know what it is but i am 99% sure it is coming from the PSU. I have tried listening to it several times and it seems to come from the PSU, i have even put my ear right on my case right where the PSU is located at the back and it really seems to come from the PSU. The noise gets louder in games like CS:GO where the FPS goes up to around 300fps, in the video i linked to i am playing Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag on Ultra settings at 60FPS capped. When i am playing CS:GO the sound seems to change a bit depending on what i am looking at in the game. Which lead me to think it was the GPU's coil whine at first, but it didn't really sound like GPU coil whine and it was louder than that, so after carefull listening in a quiet room with a rolled up paper to locate where the sound is coming from it seems to be the PSU. I am planning on replacing the PSU in about a month (I don't really have the money right now) so i am wondering, is it dangerous to be gaming when it is sounding like this? Can it damage anything? And also, which PSU do you think i should get, i want to get around 850W with an 80+ Gold rating
