Hi, I just finished my first build a few days ago, and when I boot up my computer there's a "click" sound at startup.

After opening up the case, checking the connections, and listening to several power ups, it sounds as if it's coming from the power supply.

my pc seems totally fine otherwise beyond this, I just wanted to know if I should be concerned or not.

Is it a single click or multiple clicks? It could be an arc somewhere. I would contact Cooler Master support and get their take on the matter. If its arcing, I can't imagine that would be healthy in the long run.

it's just a single click. I've only noticed earlier today, and it's only right after I pressed the power button
