    PC Constant Ticking Noise

    My computer’s making a constant ticking noise. It’s none of the fans, and I thought it was the PSU (maybe micro-arcing?), but when I installed a new psu the noise stayed. It’s not my hard drive either.
    How do I get rid of this noise??

      You validated this how?

      when the ticking is happening do you feel the system vibrating at all?

      When does it happen? any pattern?

      Complete system specs are very helpful including make and model of power supply.

      Have you blown out the dust?

      No wires being hit my fan?

      No fan wabble?

        Hi,

        If you unplug the hard drive from the system and power on the system does the ticking noise still occur? Do you have any other peripherals that could be plugged in making any noise?

        Have you made sure its not your monitor not causing any issues?
