hello guys, my new pc that I built a month ago recently started to make a weird noise coming from inside the computer. I cant pinpoint where its coming from but I know its not my heatsink cus I got a new one and it still makes it. im not sure what else it could be I made sure all the components are screwed it tight. someone please help!!!

Can you be more precise on what noise it makes ? It could be an HDD clicking sound, An optical drive clicking sound, A psu fan, A GPU coil whine or fan problem, please tell us more so that we can resolve your problem.

oh sorry. it kind of sounds like a rumbling sound. if I put my head up to the computer it is coming from the left side of the case where my mobo, optical drive, hard drive are. im assuming its one of those things. PS. another thing I forgot to mention, the 24 pin connector that goes into your mobo, I cant get that in all the way, no matter how much force I use the connector just wont go in all the way. my computer turns on and works fine but as you already know it makes a weird noise.

Unplug the optical drive and see what happens, and also tell me if you have a fan in the front of your case.

The problem may be either the fan itself or a vibration noise between the case and the fan.
