PSU Weird noise

[adamherman79]

Recently I bought an EVGA 750w BQ psu for my new build.
I plugged it in and as soon as i did I saw sparks followed with crackling and buzzing noise. Everything seems to be working fine now but I do hear an off putting buzzing noise coming from the psu and my fans speed constantly changing. As far as I know I did everything right!
Please help if anyone knows what’s wrong with my psu.
Thanks!

If you saw sparks and heard crackling , I wouldn't be using that PSU.

Yeah that’s what I thought except it works fine now.
Thinking about it might not be sparks. It was more like a white flash, kinda like the flash on a camera. My concern right now is the weird noise coming from it. I’m fairly certain it’s the fan but ill try find out more information.

Just monitor your system if it seems fine no need to return or replace.
