Noise from the clock ticking near the CPU area
Noise from the clock ticking near the CPU area
We're not on the scene, so we can't confirm the issue. Likely it's a pump, fan, or coil whine. Keep an eye on things and swap out any suspect parts.
Just a quick note. After removing my aio Cooley's power cable while keeping an eye on my CPU temperature, the ticking noise wasn’t caused by that cable. It’s actually coming from my GPU. I realized this after putting my PC to sleep, unplugging the power cord, and then restarting it—no ticking sounds came through, but the noise was present. Interestingly, this sound felt more like electrical buzzing rather than the usual coil whine. Since my first GPU was a 2060s model, I hadn’t experienced this problem until recently, which made me start investigating further. Now I’m trying to determine what’s behind the sound.
