SO my PSU burned out :(

I say try changing the mains cable too. I had a defective mains cable with one of my old PSUs, after a couple of months the wiring was frayed inside.

 

Oh the socket cable, the one that plugs into the wall socket, can I just use one from the other PC?

 

I changed every cable, and the one that came with the new PSU... and I still hear those Hyper Charged circuit noises

EDIT:

here's another thing, I just recorded a video with the sound in it.
However this time, I turned on the PC and the clicking did not start immediately, it was like... good for 30 seconds and then it started clicking.

The only difference being, 1) 2nd time after I changed the cables to new ones
2) I have APC UPS 1050 (uninterrupted power supply) that's suppose to protect my PC from surges, and this one, whenever I turn it on, I turn the pc immediately on as well.

This time I waited a little bit for UPS to charge up or something (it doesn't turn on immediately)



EDIT 2:

Okay, I plugged the PSU into the wall socket instead of the UPS. The power supply worked normally without clicking. Hmm I wonder, is it possible that the PSU is not providing enough AC for the PSU?

the thing is, mine is the Battery UPS, so I assume the current goes through the battery first, so that there would be no delay incase the power goes out to switch to battery.

Is it possible that PSU is receiving insufficient AC everytime I turn on the UPS (since it does delay a little bit I have noticed, not immediatelly after it beeps)

 

The video just incase you want to see it

ummm i don't have the best speakers, but after watching your video that sounds alot like either something is shorting, or the fan bearings going to s#!ts. judging by the rate of clicking....probably something to do with the fan. or a short that would most likely be very early in from the input side of the circuit.
pros and cons of being a lifeless nerd
pros i can fix it, doesn't matter what it's fixable.
cons i think my wife is retarded. (thank god she doesn't read this forum)
pro i can fix that
con i hope.
pro i don't have to worry about social issues when new games get released
con i don't have to worry about sex when a new game gets released D:
pro new games come out often
con new games come out often.
srry i got off topic. anywho i'd check to make sure the fans cleared, then worry about shorts.

 

>_>

Yea I checked the fan, I tried spinning it with the pen and it doesn't make that sound.

Besides, just now, I plugged the PC into the wall socket, and it worked fine for 5 minutes, and then the clicking started again :/ , and it's like that every time I turn it on....

 

Well i did take the PSU out and recorded that video, so I am pretty sure it is the PSU.

 

From the sound of the video it does seem like it's coming from the PSU. If I were you, I'd try running the PSU in another system and see if the same noise comes from it.
While I'd blame the PSU, the fact that a noise I've not heard a PSU make before is coming from two different units that aren't even identical electrically suggests it could be something to do with the system you're running.

 

-_- idk when I will get to that. Oh, I started uni today... and I just realized why ppl have so much trouble in it

But I checked last time, the PC lasted around 30 mins before making that noise. It's kinda weird, although I spun the fan with a pen, is it possible that when the PSUs fan is running its fan may be pulling a component into it and therefore makes contact with it?

 

I doubt it, it does sound like a fan noise, but the circumstances don't really match up, it's more likely something else. It is definitely the PSU? It sounds like it is, but youtube videos don't always tell the whole story
