Humming noises are ussually caused by fans.
The first thing I would try is the power supply.
I' ve read online several complaints from Corsair Power Supplies´s users about a humming noise coming from them. Corsair technical support tells them to try flip the PSU upside down, so that sound stops. Check if that works ( I guess you can claim your warranty in that case though).

If that is not the case I would suggest troublleshooting all your system case fans, cpu, and gpu fans, to see where the problem is.

Since you don't have HDDs I don´t know if that sound could be from another component

Put a paper tube to your ear like a stethoscope and try to localize where the sound is coming from.

Power supplies can be oriented any which way.
Usually, the intake should be from the outside to provide better cooling for the psu.
But, intake from the inside is ok if that reduces a noise that is bothering you.
If what you hear is not fan noise, it could be coil whine, not uncommon for a psu.
Don't know if coil whine is a valid reason for a RMA, but you could try.

RMA is a Return Merchandise Authorization.
Used to return a defective product under warranty.
