I built my PC 5 days ago and it just started today but my psu is buzzing every once in awhile for about 10 seconds. I have a EVGA 650 Gold full mod. Any clue why its doing this

What are your full specs?

Are you 100% sure the buzzing is coming from the PSU (and not the GPU etc)?

It's not unheard of for PSUs the 'buzz' a little, when under load - but quality PSUs (which the EVGA should be, unless it's an NEX?) shouldn't suffer from it much. If it truly is coming from the PSU, it wouldn't be a bad idea to RMA it - or at least contact EVGA for an opinion.

Did you get a workaround?

Because I just bought and installed the same PSU, and the buzzing noise happens when I get into load?
