Two new components with fans have gone into my system.

The PSU and 3080.

Since installation I can hear a noise that wasn't there before, what sounds like a fan bearing.

We determined today by moving the PC around and getting close to it that it is from the PSU.

Now I can hear it above the rest of the system as the system is quiet, it's not loud per se however it is noticeable and slightly annoying.

Many reviews said this PSU is very quiet,.amongst the quietest. It has a ball bearing fan.

I never heard my previous PSU fan.

Question is, is this a fault, should I request replacement?

Edit determined DEF the PSU, if you press the active fan button off/on the fan can be heard instantly.
