Was the sound Gregorian Chants? Barry Manilow? If you have sound from the PSU it could be just a fan going out. I don't think anything else in there makes noise. Please hold the PSU up to your monitor so I can hear what it sounds like.

It seem like the psu fan..? izzit possible that my comp run in full load thus the psu can't supply enough watt for it? cos there were twice goes into blue screen (it just show for a while, i can't manage to see what it wrote) when loading the game and after that my comp restart automatically..
