The last few months I have a ticking noise coming from my PSU, it can be quiet for hours and then suddenly start, it sounds a bit like there is a small cricket inside the PSU.

The funny thing is that it doesn't hurt the stability, I have never had any instability due to the PSU, the VCore low value over 6 days is 1.48V and the high value is 1.52V with the average being spot on at 1.50V

What the hell causes the ticking noise in the PSU, can it be a fan bearing?
