My PC is super quiet (save for the fan buzzing when you place your ear next to them), but there is one slight problem: no matter what I'm doing (just looking at the desktop, gaming, youtube, anything) I can hear a very faint "kind of rattle sound". Don't know how to explain it, but it's nearly silent but I can still hear it. The sound doesn't happen constantly, but it happens every few seconds.
During gaming, with the music on, you can't hear it. But once you go to the menu or anything, you can sometimes hear it. It just breaks the immersion and it's annoying, since I don't know what actually causes it. I'm not even sure it's the pc causing it, but then again: I have shut it down several times (and sat at my desk) without hearing anything.
Obviously, I have already opened my case and placed my ear next to the fans/gpu/cpu fan, but I can't hear the noise. Some of the fans makes a buzz, but it's not that. I actually thought it was my PSU at first (antec hcg) but I replaced that one with another brand and the sound is still there. It's not even loud, but it's just annoying because it's very silent, yet audible. The fact I don't know what's causing it, is making it worse.
