Corsair CX600w random interval constant clicking noise
it seems i may have a problem with my PSU, it is making a constant clicking noise. However strangely the intervals between the clicks are not constant, sometimes there is a longer gap than other times, e.g 1/2 second, 3/4 second.

have doen some research, its either components in the PSU arcing, or the fan hitting something.

there are no signs of the PSU failing such as random restarts or the PC loosing power.

The PSU is not to old, about 1/2 year, needed a more powerful one for my new setup, im pretty sure there is no problem with wattage to components.

specs:
PSU: Corsair CX600
CPU AMD FX 8350
GPU: AMD R9380 4gb
RAM: 24gb

fan controller - not sure wattage as built into case

harddrive, disk drive, etc

double check the wiring
make sure all wires are away from fans
it may be a wire internal to the psu, but thats unlikely, those have the inernal wires bundled away from the fan
