It seems like the fan is struggling. If it's the power supply unit, I wouldn't recommend opening it. You might attempt using compressed air to check if it's just dirty—this could resolve the issue. Otherwise, a replacement PSU would be necessary. The safest choice. It appears to be located within the PSU housing; there doesn’t seem to be an opening at the top for airflow under the case, does it?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
You might want to roll a sheet of A4 paper into a cylinder and hold one end to your ear while the other end is used to probe for the source of the sound. It will come from a fan but which fan is the real question.
Please list the specs to your build like so:

include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model.
You're a bit stuck in disassembly and can't turn the PC on because the PSU fan is dusty, but you don't have compressed air. Here are some alternatives: try using a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to gently clean the fan blades, or use a dry cloth to wipe away the dust. If that doesn't work, you might need to replace the fan or seek professional help.
1. Find the loud fan.
2. Fix the noisy fan or swap out the whole part with a noisy fan.
Ladies and gentlemen, the computer attempts to start,
One second the RGB activates and then it stops,
This cycle continues repeatedly
