278708 2004-10-06 08:23:00 maybe - but it seems to get louder as i turn my fans down - but it is hard to tell ApeNz (4220)
278709 2004-10-06 08:30:00 ok - its not the fan - i killed it by taking out the plug and the noice was still there ApeNz (4220)
278710 2004-10-06 08:31:00 my guess is its your psu (power supply) working harder to supply the power needed.

worried........no idea, depends an what power supply it is (brand and wattage).

278713 2004-10-06 08:42:00 it seems to be coming from the CPU area.

How can i tell if my psu is working to hard - apart from wating for it to blow up
