Hello I'm pretty new to the forums and have a question about a noise my PSU has been making. Under load it make a distinct buzzing noise almost like a bee or something. I've read up on it a bit and have gotten the term coil whine most of the time as the answer but I want to know exactly what is causing this noise and whether or not I need to replace the PSU based on the cause. One friend I have suggested that it may be dirty power from the power grid causing the issue and that I should get a power conditioner. However I don't want to spend money on something that doesn't work. I am planning on up grading to a higher voltage modular higher rated PSU in the future and want to know if I should just upgrade now.
I have checked and its not the graphics card as I quickly stopped the fans on it and the noise was coming from the PSU. It started shortly after the build was complete then it went away for a while and now its back.
Any help is appreciated.
