Hi, I own a CIT FX Pro 600w PSU that hasn't been widely discussed and has received mixed feedback. I'm looking for the PC to function reliably for at least a year. The audio only appears when I power it on, with a clicking or ticking sound lasting about 60 seconds, and similarly when I turn it off, it makes the same noise for around 60 seconds. Is this typical behavior or should I consider replacing the PSU?

CIT isn't a strange name. It's a familiar seller of low-quality, risky items. Consider changing it.

Thanks for the reply, would you consider replacing it essential? If yes, do you have any recommendations for good PSUs you could use instead?
