guear Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I attached a sample sound file. The noise sounds like cricket or small pebble hitting all over. Is it normal? It is audible when I am 1-2ft away but occasionally it can be louder and heard from 5ft away.Memo.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warmonger180 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 that doesn't sound normal at all. the coolmax I have now, I can't hear its fan over the case fans and gfx card fan at 20%, and that I can't hear either. if there's a store nearby, take it in and see what they have to say. may have to be RMA'd before something give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Nope, doesn't sound normal to me either. I would get it replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guear Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I can't take it back as it has been 11months. The case fan is louder most of the time as you notice in the audio file, I only realized it a couple day ago when I was cleaning my computer.

zlikr Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I made a post about a similar problem i have and i just saw this thread. I have almost exactly the same sound from the fan, and i also have the same PSU model... I thought it would have been something that can be fixed... So disappointed with Corsair at the moment... Almost everything that can be Corsair in my computer, it is. My ram, my case, my PSU, all Corsair... and thats how im getting rewarded for my trust... So disappointed and frustrated....
