my pc is a tactical nuke (making loud noise and freezing)

[EnderBorn]

Ok my pc freezes a lot, but when it wont it works perfect for hours. WELL THAT WAS YESTERDAY. Today i tried to boot my pc and it started to make very loud noice and i started to freak out but i waited for it to complete booting and guess what, IT BECAME MUCH LOUDER and i had to force shut down my pc because i was afraid it will EXPLODE. I checked my cpu fan and my only forever alone small fan that keeps my airflow in the back, they were ok. So i tried to boot again, that loud noise continued to make noise and when my desktop appeared my pc froze after 3 seconds and that noise was still here.

My pc specs:
Ga-n650sli-ds4
core 2 duo e4300
2 x1 gb ram
Psu 350 W
Geforce 8600 gts

PS yesterday i had all day gaming

ANY IDEAS I SHOULD DO? that pc makes me afraid of it

What does the noise sound like? It could be the hard drive.

Sounds like a heat problem and your fans are spinning up. Have you cleaned out the PC lately?

That noise sounds like an airplane, time ago my pc was loud too but not that loud, i think my psu making the noise but i dont think that psu makes my pc freeze

Power supply should have a fan, video card should have a fan. Hard drives make a terrible noise when they are dying. Take the side panel off and figure out where that noise is coming from. Then post back.

No one is going to be able to help until you know what part is making the noise.

My pc was cleaned 1-2 months ago

My video card have a very tiny fan so i dont think it can make THAT noise, so i guess ill check wheres the noise coming from

This chart recommends a 500w psu for a 8600GTS

I suspect the noise is your 350w psu trying it's best and the noise is the psu fan cooler.

Take the covers off of your pc and listen for the noise.
Use a paper tube as a stethoscope to pinpoint it.

Time for a quality 500w+ psu.

Ok good news and bad news time:

Good news: i found out that noise is coming from power supply.
Bad news: this means my psu is going to detonate? Sounds.... terrible.

 

[VincentGeddon]

Like Geofelt says, time for a quality 500w psu. Looks like it has been stressed for quite awhile, replace it before it completely goes and takes your hardware with it.

Lol, it wont detonate, though if could go up in a puff of stinky smoke and take your motherboard and other components with it.

If your power supply has proper overpower protection, it won't "detonate", but who knows what PSU you own.

 

[EnderBorn]

I used psu wattage calculator tool and it told me that 250W psu is recommended for me... im kind a saving my money to build a better pc... well i guess my current pc is dead
