Hey Tom's Hardware

For some time my computer has been quite noisy. I figured the sound comes from the PSU, but I don't know how to fix the issue. I have already tried cleaning every fan without improvement. I'm no techsavvy, so bear with me. If you are in need of some vital information, that I missed out on, tell me and I will get it. Also I took some pictures if it helps out.

The PSU:

Model No. RX-600AF
AC Input AC 230V, 50hz
Total output 600W

Pictures

Specs here:

  • MB1155 Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H
    Intel Core i7-3770k 4x3,5 GHz
    DDR3-1866 Kingston 4GB
    HDS 500GB Seagate HDD 6GB/s
    Nvidia GTX 660Ti 2GB

Looking forward to some help :wahoo:

EDIT: So after some more research and help I can conclude that the PSU most likely is the problem. The quality is pretty awful and others have had problems with loud noises with it aswell as me.
