It might not even happen when the PSU is being used intensivly and might be silent when it is - its one of those strange comptuer things. Best thing is to give it a listen to and see if its too loud for you - I don't think it will ever damage your computer but it can be annoying if it starts happening all the time -------------------- My photography blog http://overread.wordpress.com Post Extras
