Unplug the power from the HD. If the sound is still there you ruled that out. | ||

Well, that doesn't sound like any HDD clicking I ever heard. That sounds more like metal on metal clicking... | ||

The scary part is when you realize the only thing that can make a noise in the PSU is electrical arcs o_o (or a fan, but that;s boring) | ||

Who unbalanced the washer? That's probably the fan inside the PSU. Don't open it unless you want to void the warranty on it. Put in a warranty claim, then buy a cheap one at Best Buy for while it's sent back to the manufacturer (that way you can return the cheap PSU when you get the real one back). Bonus points if you put it on your credit card, so the charges don't hit you before you return it. Before you do any of that though, check there's nothing obstructing your graphics card fan(s). They're located right next to the PSU, but I doubt they would be loud enough to make that ungodly noise. |

Just unscrew the fan from the psu and remove it. Problem solved, just keep your pc in the fridge from now on to prevent overheating. I'm remixing the sound for a new DJ Zatum single, some sick samples you got there | ||

Sounds like the PSU fan wire hitting the fan. Just unplug your PSU and problem solved. |
