PSU rattle / vibrating

[Guest2]

My Corsair TX850 PSU is making a rattling noise, however when I open the case and push down on it this noise stops.

I have hoovered it out and re-fitted it but the noise still happens. All rubber base feet are still under the PSU on the bottom of my case

Could anyone recommend something that will effectively force the PSU down or stop the rattling another way?

Sounds like the fan bearing is on the way out. You could change the fan and see if it changes anything.

You have a very similar PSU to me (mine is the TX750) and I am getting a very similar issue with noise that stops when pressing on the PSU.

I assume an RMA is the only permanent 'fix' that can be done without taking it apart? I am yet to arrange one though as I am not sure what Corsair will say, whether it is worthy of an RMA
