Hi,i have in my pc older CM Thunder 600W(older model),on tuesday afternoon i tried some games after windows reinstall and PSU started buzzing and vibrating,i think for 95 % its from PSU,tomorrow i played game if it started,i played for next 10 minutes and then pc shuts down,but it can be normally turned on,it is PSU failure? If it is i want to buy Zalman ZM700-GLX,with 80plus bronze and many connectors as i need.

yes it does sound as if the PSU is failing on you. to keep your components safe id recommend keeping the system off until you can replace the PSU to prevent damage.

Guess your PSU is toast.Since,you've told the psu was buzzing and vibrating,it could be the fan which could have been running faster than normal and this could be due to heating in the PSU.Cheak the airflow to the PSU or if the Intake is blocked by dust or anything else :)
