Question Weird sound coming from my PC when playing VR. Possibly my PSU?

I’m at a loss for what this sound could actually be. It seems to be coming from my PSU, but I don’t know why it would be making this rattling sound. It’s not the fan, because it behaves in the way coil whine does where it depends on where you’re looking in game. If I close the game, the sound instantly stops. If it were the fan, I’d think it would take a bit to stop as the fan slowed down. Is it possible this is a weird variety of coil whine?

its most likely a bad bearing when the fan ramps up or to low its basically grinding

This is a pretty new PSU and the previous one I had of the same model (which I RMAd because of this noise) also did it

Possibly another fan in your system.
