Everyone,
I've got a gaming build inside a Silverstone GD04. I occasionally hear a "pop" noise from the inside of my case. It happens rarely and intermittently enough that I am unable to localize it. It is a pop and not a "click" or "clack" like a hard drive would sound. If I were to compare it to something it sounds a little like an louder version of when you plug something into an outlet if that makes any sense. Its sounds electrical to me, but I may be wrong.
Pure speculation, but there may some motherboard mount risers underneath the board without corresponding mounting holes on the motherboard itself. Could that be causing a short? Also my computer is operating perfectly, if there was a short somewhere or a discharge.... what would be the symptoms...? Would the computer continue to operate normally? Thank you.
My Rig:
Case: Silverstone GD04
PSU: Antec Basiq 550 Watt
MB: GA-MA74GM-S2
PROC: Athlon II X4 640
MEM: Patriot DDR2 800
HD: Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB
