Hello, i builded this pc ,1month ago. Had no issues, everything worked great, Till this day just now, while browsing youtube, and in background i listening music ,from Spotify. And suddenly, PC Started to hiccuping like, and affter 3sec , its Freeze with Buzzing sound at my Headphones.

I had to restart my pc, to get back on track normally.

I really dont know what is this..

PSU: Corsair RM650x ( And here im wondering if this causing problems, cuz past month its been buzzing and making electrical noise, often. I read on forums, that just ignore it. So i did. But its like starting to buzz and making weard noises then goes away, affter day or few hours comes back..


 


I would return that psu. Buzzing is normal and not something to worry about but electrical noises is not something I would trust. Could very well be an other issue with your system but I would first remove a possibly faulty psu from the list.

Without even knowing that the PSU is making buzzing noises i'd instantly suggest a power issue. Maybe one of your components is not getting enough power or maybe too much?

THis is something id rectify straight away a faulty PSU can end a system very quickly, and with a system like yours... i'd cringe if it were me.

Get it out and raise an RMA!
