Recently got a 600w super flower PSU and after plugging it in, it's been making periodic high pitched pinging noises.

this is when it's not even on load.

The sound even comes and goes when the computer is switched off.
The psu is connected to an outlet which is turned on, though.

actually even before it's on, with just the power flowing through, it pings periodically.

See if any internal wire is getting in the way of the fan.

didnt see any cables after shining a torchlight within.

the sound can last for 10seconds, go away for a minute, then come back for another few seconds.

i'm really confused, what's happening :s22:
