after start-up, though sometimes it doesn't make the noise for less than 30 second periods now and again. I could record a video of the noise and start up if that would help

video of the noise, it does originate from the thing attached to the CPU as far as I'm aware

It's still under warranty, the grinding/rattling doesn't seem to happen in the bios either.

it's not excessive but it's irritating and noticeable though, is there any solution home solution to this or am I just going to have to send it off? ]]> Sat, 25 May 2013 15:27:35 +0000 http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10561&PID=78298#78298 http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10501&PID=78297#78297 Author: Cyber_Tech

Yes, if you run a CPU stress test it'll stay at 4.3GHz while the CPU is under load.

Ok I installed intel boost and it's telling me (I think) that it's running at 4.3ghz? There is a bar that occasionally rises to 4.3. Is this what you mean?]]> Sat, 25 May 2013 12:08:42 +0000 http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10501&PID=78296#78296 http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10598&PID=78295#78295 Author: Apocalypse

Did you check CPU-z while the system was under load and do you have Intel Turbo Monitor installed?
