Hello, as stated in the title, my PC is making extreme noise that comes and goes(not necessarily when under load). I could almost describe it as if it's being possesed by a demon, lol. I recorded it and will be dropping a link for you to check it out.
I initially suspected the AIO, since it also started making watery currrent-like sound recently when the PC is on or the Case fans. However, after rewatching my recording, i noticed the GPU lights are constantly flashing yellow-red when the noise kicks in. Here is the link:

Use process of elimination by unplugging the pump for the AIO briefly to check if the noise decreases.
It seems the problem might be with the AIO pump itself, as the sound isn't coming from the fans.

I could attempt that. The problem lies in the fact that the noise, its timing, and even its duration occur completely at random. What would you think about the GPU lights becoming unstable? After observing this, I began to worry about a lack of power supply or possible wear and damage to the power cables.

Remove each clear noise source individually, reattaching them if the sound remains. It could even be a worn bearing in a PSU fan (which can't be safely unplugged). If the noise is sharp and you hear well at high frequencies, it might be resonance in a ferrite core transformer inside the PSU. Avoid working on PSUs unless you're a skilled technician or electronics expert.
