are your PC fans connected with this? Follow the sata cables and make sure they are attached, older fans use these sata to molex cables a lot and sometimes its hard to track where they are plugged into

yes the one on the right is the one my fans use but my old psu has a cyberpower led fan where i need to plug my fans in to turn on and it’s actually connected into the psu itself so i’m not sure i’m going to get these fans to turn on because i don’t know if it’s possible to get that out

I see what you mean. You need to order one of these adapters so you can plug in your fans
Amazon.com: COMeap 6 Pin Male to 3X 15 Pin SATA Female Hard Drive Power Adapter Cable for Seasonic Antec Modular Power Supply 20-in(50cm) : Electronics
That, or get fans that connect directly to the Motherboard
Amazon.com: Noctua NF-P12 redux-1700 PWM, High Performance Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 1700 RPM (120mm, Grey) : Electronics

Unless the sound is too much (means its knocking against the PSU frame, and long time could do damage) you dont have to worry. If its too much get it checked
