[SOLVED] Wierd noise.

[BlueGR]

So I have my GPU for around 1 - 2 years now and I didn't have any problems with it. But suddenly a few days ago it started doing a strange noise like a continuous cracking for 1 second only when the fans start to ramp up due to temps and then goes back to normal.
Should I be concerned? Is there anything I can do?

Thank you in advance.

What PSU do you have? A weak/badly built/old/dying PSU can cause strange noises and issues in the PC, well before it becomes obvious that the PSU is the issue. Make Model and Wattage

It is either corsair vs550 or vs650 550W or 650W

Those PSUs are ok in a pinch, but are quite an old design, and generally do not last for too long. Especially powering a modern GPU playing games and such, you should consider replacing it. If the PSU is older, like 2 years old, if that is when you built the system, then it is possible that the low quality PSU could be providing issues now, just as I mentioned was possible. Consider getting a Corsair RMx PSU or another high quality 650W unit if you can.

This EVGA unit is alright, but not a top line one. Get better if you can afford it

Same with this one. The model is not the best quality, but EVGA does have a good warranty for it. Get better if possible
