Buzzing sound from my pc, is it damaged?
Hey, everyone doing well? I have builders today and thought it might be safe to cut power if needed. I unplugged everything and turned it off. When I gently pressed the PSU switch on the back, a slight buzzing appeared. I switched it off and left it. Was this normal? I became a bit worried and checked again, flipping the switch several times quickly—it didn’t make the noise. Is my pc okay? Also, does flipping the switch a few times cause any harm?

If you move too slowly it might cause a spark and produce a buzzing sound, which is not harmful.

That's all that happened here. Nothing to worry about unless it keeps buzzing when on or off - then it's new PSU time.
