Build Advice The PSU in my new build is constantly making weird noise (it's vertically mounted in Asus Prime AP201 case) ?

[Kasno]

Hello guys, I've build this PC https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/Nz2ZTn yesterday and the PSU is making different kinds of noises. Oftentimes when I'm just browsing its making a weird rough noise that I can not really explain but under load there is a constant humming which is very annoying and by far the loudest part of the build.
Could the issue lie in the vertical mount, which is neccessary for the case? Could you, in that scenario recommend anoher PSU for 100€ or less, whioch would run quieter, as that is a big concern of mine? Thanks in advance!

The noise could also be that the fan's bearing is giving out. It could also be coil whine.

If the noise you're hearing is only heard when under load, please replace the PSU for a reliably built unit. You could look into a Seasonic unit or a Corsair RMx unit of similar wattage or the Fractal Ion unit from this shortlist;

Cooler master Masterwatt is not a particular good PSU. Pretty old, EOL for over 2 years, and has an outdated internal design with double forward on the primary. Not a unit I would buy these days, especially when it's a 750w.

Up to €100 I recommand https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product...fied-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-erf750ewt

Whats your opinion on this one: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B084S92HNW?tag=pcp05-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 for 95€?

Outdated. The Enermax is a lot better for a lower price.

The G5 from ECGA is from 202 and the Enermax from 2019, what makes it so good compared to the EVGA one?

The EVGA G5 has an ACRF platform from FSP inside. A platform that strugles with recent GPUs. The Enermax has a proven platform with a LLC resonant converter made by CWT. LLC is superior over ACRF. Besides that the Enermax has better protections (multiple 12v OCP), better fan and is more silent. And 750w instead of 650w which is nice for future upgrades.
