        ok so i found out where the grinding noise came from, it was actually something hitting the fan case.
        still though how do i know if the problem is in the gpu or the psu?

            The noise in the previous post was that of a failing fan. Take the cover off with the pc running. Get a piece of tubing and hold one end to your ear and the other end close to each fan bearing (centre of fan). that will quickly identify it. the fan you think is the one making the noise should then be disconnected which if the noise then stops will verify your diagnosis.
