Psu buzzes when I move power cord

[Demonfighter66]

Hi, I got a few months old pc, and whenever I move the psu cable it's been buzzing, Is that normal? I feel like I pushed it too hard in, the first time I put the pc together 4 months ago. Now it never feels like it's in correctly. It's an EVGA 500B. It doesn't make any noise when I don't touch the cable. And it seems to be working just fine. But it's the first pc I've build and im concerned.

Thanks in advance.

It's not normal to move your PSU power cable when your desktop is powered up. Provided we're talking about the PSU cable that comes out of your PSU and connects to the wallsocket...?

 

[Demonfighter66]

Yes and yes, but it also makes the sound when the pc is off and power switch is off, but cable is still in wallsocket, is that normal?

No, you should replace the cable and see if the issue persists.

Electricity hasn't gotten less deadly since this thread was posted in 2017. Change the cable.

Don't feel bad. You solved your computer problem with the least possible expense (nothing) and nearly the least possible effort (almost none). That's always a win!
