I recently purchased a new 450 watt Antec PSU. I was using a crummy 350 watt PS that came with my case. I noticed on my old PS that even idle the case fans and CPU fan seemed to rev up and down, similar to a revving effect with a car engine if you would press the gas peddle. (Can't think of any other way to put it)
Anyway, with my new PSU I can really hear a difference, the fans are all louder like I just turbo charged my engine. However, now the revving up and down is louder as well, and I've never heard anything like this with any of my other past PC's.
Everything runs great, I even seem to be running cooler. I just keep waiting for it to rev up and then literally just stall and shut off or something, but as I said, all is working great, even better.
Any reason to think the PSU is bad or going to die?
If I didn't hear this happen a bit with my old PSU I would have contacted NewEgg for an RMA already, but I'm not sure what to do since everything runs great. Shrug.
