I probably did some kind of combination on my keyboard that caused this. 2024-03-07 23-29-02.mp4

Lately I had some sound problems with my right ear cup in Hyperx Cloud Alpha(had them since end of october 2020), so I'm very sensitive to any foreign sounds. I've heard a very high-pitched screech that is a little painful to ear, yesterday there (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1030023352) at 2:10:28 minute mark and today here (https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1031189958) at 3:42:48 and 3:44:52 minute mark, both in right ear cup. So those problems appeared lately(a little more than a week ago) and now one day after another I hear the most unpleasant sound so far combined with whole week of problems in right ear cup, anyone would guess that problem lies in the headphones, right? Well... I found an option in Windows 10 that activates mono sound, so I've been using it to hear if problem lies in video audio(so some sound abnormality, if in video, would be now be hearable in both ears), in this case, the high-pitched screech was still only hearable in right ear. So again, that would mean the problem lies in headphones, but. I checked it in my previous headphones (Razer Kraken 7.1) and the high pitched screech was also there in right ear cup! In that case this would be either motherboard on-board audio that I use (highly unlikely) or twitch.tv itself. I clipped those moments and downloaded them, they were MP4 files and when listening to them in Windows 10 player there wasn't any high-pitched screech! I also checked it on mobile and neither in phone speakers nor on headphones was there that high-pitched screech, but I don't think that change a lot cause it's only a phone. So last thing I checked was different browsers. The main one I use is Opera GX, so I checked Microsoft Edge(no high-pitched sound!), Internet Explorer(high-pitched sound!), Mozilla Firefox(high-pitched sound!), Google Chrome(no high-pitched sound!), Tor Browser(high-pitched sound!), that's weird, right? To sum things up: Mono-sound option in Windows 10: high-pitched sound. Different headphones: high-pitched sound. Downloaded clip(windows 10 player): no high-pitched sound. Mobile speakers and headphones connected: no high-pitched sound. Different browsers: Opera GX: high-pitched sound. Microsoft Edge: no high-pitched sound. Internet Explorer: high-pitched sound. Mozilla Firefox: high-pitched sound. Google Chrome: no high-pitched sound. Tor Browser: high-pitched sound. So I would really appreciate if you guys could check those 3 moments and see if you hear those sounds, and maybe advise what should I do next, I was personally thinking about sending them to warranty but if I can also hear it on different headphones, but can't hear it on some other browsers then I really don't know what's the problem, headphones, twitch itself, sound card, browsers, maybe me, or even something else? Additional info: Both videos were on max twitch volume and 1080p60. Audio drivers doesn't seem to matter, the problem was in both older ones and the newest ones. Opera GX, Explorer, Edge and Tor were alreday on PC for few months, Firefox and Chrome were clean installed to check. The same on both front and rear audio ports. If I record the audio and listen to it, the high-pitched screech sound is there(but I'll attach them).

Thanks for the help. For the way I currently keep my SSD, no. But if I were to change its position the flat one would be nice.

Hey, I just got mine Corsair RM550x today and I have a few questions. 1)What is this thing? It has a texture of small rocks. https://i.imgur.com/M1qHgid.jpg 2)What is this bulge near the end of 24pin cable? Is it the capacitor in the cable? Other cables have similar ones in the end, although they are smaller. https://i.imgur.com/g7Vrp8Y.jpg 3)Can 24pin cable be twisted like this? The 8pin CPU cable connected to PSU is twisted in similar manner, it won't be any problem for the cables? https://i.imgur.com/jb5OORQ.jpg 4)Can a side case panel have a little bulge? Pretty small one, and the panel is made of steel I assume. The RMx's cables are so freaking stiff. 5)There were 2 sata cables included and both are angled. Are both supposed to be angled? https://i.imgur.com/ysfScJY.jpg Rest of the compenents just in case: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Cooler: SilentiumPC Fera 3 Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX Ram: Patriot 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 Viper 4 SSD: Crucial 500GB 2,5" SATA SSD MX500 GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX 5600 XT PULSE 6GB GDDR6 Case: SilentiumPC Regnum RG6V TG Pure Black

Thanks for the help guys.

So I turned off all 4 case fans and CPU fan for few seconds, and I'm 99% sure it is coming from PSU, specifically from the fan. I also found, using long cardboard tube, different sound - quiet chirping sound inside PSU. I'm also wondering why the sound was sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, sometime almost unhearable.

But if I'm not planning to upgrade my PC for next few years, then 550W would be enough, right? 650W one is already pretty expensive for me and 550W is on a little sale.

Should I go with Corsair RM550x or RM650x for this pc: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Cooler: SilentiumPC Fera 3 Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX Ram: Patriot 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 Viper 4 SSD: Crucial 500GB 2,5" SATA SSD MX500 GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX 5600 XT PULSE 6GB GDDR6 Case: SilentiumPC Regnum RG6V TG Pure Black

Since December 29 I hear an unpleasant electronic vibrant squeaky noise from the computer, it is audible up to about a meter from it (from the back of the computer), the computer is behind the second monitor and its back is facing me. The sound is not the same whole time, sometimes it is louder, sometimes quieter. This morning(live in Poland) I went into the bios to see if it is there as well, and so it is, and it was the loudest so far. But after about 40-60 minutes it quieted a little, the same in the evening - it was turned off at 3 p.m. and turned on at 7 p.m., it squealed a lot and later slighty quieted. I tried to locate the place of the sound (the fans make it difficult) and it is audible near the graphics and the power supply. I'm pretty sure it's not a whining coil from gpu (I used to play Portal 2 and when loading between locations the fps was above a thousand and the coil started squeaking) - the current sound is not that bad, I would say it is more electronic and kind of slightly vibrant. The load on the computer does not affect the squeaking in any way, the fans even drown it out. The fan-off mode in the graphics also does not affect the squeak in any way. Therefore, in the end, I would guess that it is something in the power supply. Below I am sending a sound sample from the power supply. https://voca.ro/1erafvN9wlDl I do not have any spare power supply or graphics card to replace, so I have 2 options: 1) take the computer to a computer repair shop to confirm where these sounds come from, 2) send the power supply for warranty. Anyone ever had a problem like this? Or knows what it might be?
