Corsair Ax1200i clicking when pc off

Hi all

On my second psu as 1st one had fan issue and now this one seems to have a fault

When I power off the pc it starts to click randomly.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue as I'm sending it back for a refund
And getting a AX860 instead

How would you describe the clicking sound? Could it be the expansion & contraction of metal?

Hi you know when you add power and flick the switch to on it makes a click.

It's like that constantly

Is it when you switch the PSU power to on or when you actually draw power?

When it on a drawing power no clicking can be heard. So this morning I turned it on to add windows 8 . preview etc powered off and a few minutes later the psu starts clicking

Could it be a fan knocking/catching something?

The last fan I see spinning down is the rear 140mm. It's definitely the psu and the psu fan does not move when the clicking starts

If you bought it from OcUK, I would recommend getting it RMA'd.
