Corsair HX1000i High Pitched noise

[TomTTK]

I bought the PSU last week and installed it without issues. I connected it to corsair link and I can monitor it as normal.

Since installing it I have noticed a high pitched buzzing noise. It's not the fan or coil whine, but I can describe it as like a high pitched frequency buzzing sound.

Looking into this further I noticed that it only buzzed when the led flashed on the psu for corsair link. And some times it would buzz consistently or on and off.

Can you help me please, I wonder if this needs returning?

Thanks.

Any kind of noise that it's not supposed to make could be a bad part of fault of some sort, either way, it's not right and should be replaced, you don't know if it's a big problem or small problem without taking it apart and knowing intimately how a PSU works, and if you were to take it apart it would void the warranty.
