Ok, so I finally got my new machine last wednesday. All seems good, I moved my data, I migrated appdata (Firefox etc.) and played some RDR2 - all seemed good!
But now, after 3 days at 3 am I heard a noise. Weird noise. At first I thought it was just a bottle of water, kind of hissing noise a bottle can make if not closed properly, right? But it repeated. After few times I was certain it was from inside my new PC. Cold sweat instantly on me.
Checking temps - all in norm. Turned off the game I was playing (Pathfinder: WoR). Checked SMART for drives. All good.
Noises still kept coming. At a bit random intervals.
Turned off PC. Turned off the power strip. Made sure UPS is also off.
For the next 2 hours it still made the noises.
Which makes me rather confident it's PSU - because hell, what else?
So now, the question is. WTF is this? Coil whine? I never heard one such as this:

(move to last 10 seconds or so)
I never experienced this nor myself nor in ex-work where I was repairing PCs and it made me lose some sleep already.
