    Question Corsair iCUE H150i ELITE CAPELLIX XT humming noise

    When I enter AUX mode on my stereo, a buzzing/humming persists.

    This happens even if there is is no AUX cable in the AUX port. Simply selecting AUX mode causes the humming. The Stereo I have is a Panasonic SC-PMX70B with 2 speakers. The humming comes out of both speakers. The stereo is not connected to any additional devices. Can this be fixed?

    Question My PSU makes a soft humming/buzzing noise. Cause for concern?

    It's hardly noticeable, but if you listen for it, you can hear it. It becomes more apparent when you put your ear directly next to the unit. It doesn't really fluctuate in pinch like coil whine, it's more just a constant hum. It seems to change slightly under load, but I can't tell for sure. I'm...
