Corsair RM650 horrible fan noise


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I used to have a cv550 which had horrible coil whine, so I RMAed it and got sent the same one which had the same issue. So I thought it’s probably the model that’s the issue so they then send out the RM650. Which is meant to be dead quiet due to the 0 rpm mode. The PSU is fine until the fan kicks in. It makes this horrible grinding sound which is really annoying. What should I do? Is anyone else having this issue?

Hi, i have the exact same issue, just purchased a RM650 and the fan noise is absolutely terrible when it kicks in, which it does all the time, even when my PC is not doing much. I read quite some reviews before i bought it and they all said it was very silent, so i thought there might be something wrong with my unit. But fact is the reviews i read were all at least 5 years old and i also read somewhere that Corsair changed some components recently, so maybe it's an issue with the 2023 model? The noise it makes  it's absolutely unacceptable, will have to return it if there's no solution,
