Fan Clicking!!!

Recommended Posts

I'm sorry to say but this really ticks me off. I thought I was buying the best power supply you could get these days. Hooked everything up and I am getting a LOUD clicking noise from the fan. Is there anything I can do or does this need to be sent back?

 

Thanks in advance for any help. I forgot to add this is a 620HX

Power off the pc, use a thin/non-conductive item to stop the 120mm fan from spinning, now power the pc back on to see if the clicking persists.

Are you hooked up to a UPS? If so try going straight from the psu to the wall socket.

What are your pc specs?

 

Good Day

 

I've got the same noise/ problem with the Power unit HX520w. But when I move the power wire at the connection to the PWR unit a little up the clicking has stopped. I have testet the HX520W also at the other PC and system does not even starts up....??? why that??:confused:

 

Many thanks in advance

Do the fans spin up in the system or on the PSU? Are you able to test the HX520 in a different system?

 

Yep all fans spin up just have a loud clicking sound coming from the power supply. Sounds almost like the fan is hitting something. I remounted the power supply and it stayed the same.

 

I am using an intel 975xbx2kr board with E6600 processor.

 

2Gb of Kingston DDR2 memory

hello

 

Thanks for response. I have tested the PSU at 2 different system.

 

1#: all fan does not spin up and system has not started.

2#: all fans are spinning and system started up. But the PSU has a loud clicking noise until I move the PWR connection a little bit up or down. ::eyebuldge

 

I have yesterday spoken with the tech support from my supplier, I can exchange it with a new one. I hope the new one does work correctly.

 

The system which has not started, does hopefully support the atx v.2.01! According search, it does up to vs. 2.03. I awaiting for a response from manufacturer.

 

the MB:(ECS) MSI?? RC410-M vs.1.01 (Asterope-GL8E)
