Hi guys, so I recently got a little budget computer I built myself, with a 1070 8GB, ryzen 5 3600, and 16 gb ram. I was not so much looking forward to this day, because I was afraid that I would mess up the assembly of the machine, and I am worried that this might have happened, since I am putting together a pc for the first time in my life, but I am posting this here anyway, because maybe the PSU is the problem:
my motherboard is making a pulsating, flashing orange light, and many people say it's a PSU problem, (edit: my motherboard and PSU are completely new, both bought 2 days ago.)
the fans on my video card wouldn't spin until after I downloaded an MSI Afterburner and set them to spin,
when I start a game, my PSU starts making a very annoying buzzing, crackling noise, I thought about coil whining, but I don't know anything about it, so I'm writing this post instead, to see if I can get some help.
So tldr: motherboard is flashing orange, video card fans are only running with MSI afterburner, PSU is making a weird buzzing sound when I play a game.
My power supply is Chieftec 600W Eco Series. I have read a lot of good and bad things about this PSU, so I can't decide which one is good. where I live (in hungary) only good things were written about it on the site where I bought it, and it was in my previous computer, and it worked there, nothing like that. . so that's it!
