    when i turn my pc on, it starts with a weird noise, i checked if a cable was touching the fan, i cleaned the fans, and put it back together but the noise is still there. the power supply ATX12V, is there a software that tells you if there's a problem with the power supply. thanks

    sounds like 1 of your fans needs lubrication. try to isolate which fan is making the noise.
