psu squealing

[philip j fry]

Hi my psu is ocz 1000w zx series just wondered if its a major proplem if it makes a slight squealing noise when underload ( see sig for spec ) fine any other time just when playing games or benching , never heard anything from my old thermaltake psu so am a little worried about this as i dont want to damage anyother componants.

thanks

ah ok cool just read somewhere that it might be a capasitor on its way out or something is arcing inside the psu , will a coil whine shorten the life of the psu ?
