Hi guys I've posted asking for help in here and reddit last tuesday and from the response that I get from reddit my current problem is most probably because of the PSU.

https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/3k5ux0/troubleshooting_warning_5v_088v/

 

So i just bought a new PSU which is the cooler master v650 80+G.

When i install it the warning still shows up (+5V 0.88V) and also the bad news is the v650 is so noisy. When i said noisy, i mean really really noisy, I think the fan is at the highest setting. I decided to uninstall the Asus suite software to disable the annoying pop-up. After i uninstall the warning doesnt show up anymore(as it is indicated by the software). I literally gave up at this point, i wasted lots of times troubleshooting but still couldnt find the problem. And now I have an additional problem with my v650 as it makes a really loud sound and at times i can hear buzzing sound (i think it's coil whine?). Please i really need help guys.

 

Can you guys help me check out the voltage and temperature of my system and tell me is it normal? Im really scared and have no idea why my PSU is really loud.

I believe they are plugged in correctly. Both from wall to my PSU and from PSU to all my hardware.

To be sure, you should shut down the pc, remove both connectors from the motherboard and plug them back in. Are you overclocking your machine?

Do some benches, and prime tests, and watch your voltages in speedfan, cpu-z and any other program that you have that shows them. Check to see if any of the voltages drop when you put the computer under load. The cpu vcore should drop slightly under load (this is normal and called vdroop). Keep your eye mainly on the +12v +3v and +5v. If either of those drop more than a tiny amount, your PSU has probably gone bad. 

Oh, try using OCCT. That program actually logs your power output. So you can set it up to test for a few hours and then come back later to look at the voltages.

No im not overclocking them. I've removed them for a few times since this problem occurs. Do you mind me asking from the picture that i posted is everything seems normal or the volt has a problem on any of my hardware? Also i'll try to check on the pcpartpicker

Nothing really appears out of the ordinary, would've liked to be able to see what the GPU voltage is, any clue why there are several blank values listed under the cpu? Never mind the blank values are for overclocking. ignore those, everything looks normal.

i've asked my friend and he suggest me to change the psu as it is still under a week so I can change with a new one. but im just wondering if the problem still happens it means there's really something wrong with the internal hardware right? Usually what makes the psu fan to spin hard non-stop? Im really confuse with what im facīng.

You might have just a got a bad PSU, or it could be that your system needs more power thann your PSU can deliver.  I'm not exactly sure of everything connected to your computer though, so idk how much power it needs to be drawing. if you entered all your system components into a PC part picker, it'd help greatly, as it will list an estimated wattage usage that should pretty close to the real thing.

I've entered all my hardware in the pcpartpicker but I cant find the cooler master v650 PSU. The estimated watt for all my component (except psu) doesnot exceed 400W. I'll change my PSU today. I'll inform if the problem still occur

yeah if the estimate is that far below the rating then you are certainly fine, it may just be a defective PSU let us know how changing it goes.

Went to the shop with the PSU. He tested on his computer and the psu is dead silence, zero problem. Cant swap for a new psu as he said the psu if perfectly fine, instead he changed the fuse of the psu cable to 5A (originally 10A out of the box). The psu still makes the loud noise as before however there is no more buzzing noise. 

 

I asked the pc guy he said that normally psu will be loud if there is too much load but when i said im running gtx980 he said it's impossible because v650 can handle it easily. 

Should i format my Windows ssd? Is there any possibilty that virus causes all this problem?
