So its seems my M12II 750Watt PSU from seasonic has developed a terrible tick. 

 

Im assuming its the fan as ive isolated and cleaned everything else just in case, and checked the screws and mounting areas around the case to be absolutely sure. My guess it its off balance but then again i could be wrong as the clicking is intermittent (which is even more annoying), and when it does click it sounds like 2 pieces of plastic making contact, does anyone know if i should be worried about it breaking and causing damage to the rest of the system ?

 

Ive emailed Seasonic twice (a month ago and Today) but they havent responded yet. Im totally lost on what to do, and kind of mad as i spent the money on a Seasonic to have a nice quiet power supply with quality components but that doesent seem to be the case with them.

 

 

P.s. If i do end up dumping Seasonic forever, whats one of the best Quiet PSU's for 750Watts and 120-150$ price range (Canada) Ive been looking into the Corsair RM-750 but im not sure.

I may or may not go with Seasonic again, depends on how i feel considering i still havent gotten an RMA response and im going insane with all this clicking.

is the RM eally worse with a 0 Power Fan and Gold rating vs a Bronze for the Seasonic ?

 

Also ive isolated it and the sound is coming from within the PSU (had it running on cardboard) from what i can see there seems to be a thin piece of plastic used inside to control airflow so im wondering if its that causing the sound.
