My PSU started making a weird ticking noise

[Luke56]

So, I decided to do some cable management on my PC and I had to turn my PSU fan-side down to have the cables go long enough. When I booted up, the PSU started making a weird ticking noise, any ideas why?

Could be bad fan\bearing.

Maybe, but when I turn the computer sideways it stops making any noises, plus when it was fan-side up it didn't make any noise either

^ that, or maybe a cable is hitting the fan from inside.

My mother had a CX500 in a Dell that did this.
