[SOLVED] Please help

Hello,
I have had my pc for 6 months now and have started noticing some strange sounds. Whenever i play intensive games like call of duty i can hear a strange crackling, clicking sound slightly around the bottom half of pc where psu, gpu and hdd are. The t isnt too loud but sound sort of like a radiation counter. The pc still runs completely fine, never blue screened, temps are fine.
Is this just a form of coil whine or should i be worried about this sort of sound?
Also the pc is free of this sound when idle or playing less intensive games
Thanks for any advice

What are specs of the PC?
Who makes HDD?
What make/model PSU?

I don't think its normal to hear crackling noises, that would make me concerned too.

I would try to work out exactly which one is causing the noises. Maybe take side of case off and listen inside without touching anything.

Specs are
1650 super
16gb ram
3400g
Toshiba 1tb hard drive
Xilence 600w power supply
I have already had a listen and it is hard to tell exactly where it is from, i think its is either psu or hdd. But it is only occasional, sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesnt

i can't find a review of that PSU that isn't 10 years old.

I would think if it only happens during gaming, its likely that PSU as i can't find anyone suggesting that people buy it - https://hardforum.com/threads/is-the-german-made-xilence-power-supply-any-good.1749454/

You would have been better off with something made by Corsair or Seasonic. Might be a little more but they don't make weird noises under load.
