I've had my 1000w G6 for several months now, and last night I heard an unusually loud fan noise while gaming. I thought it was my CPU cooler as I just installed a new cooler last week and added another fan to it yesterday. I quit the game (Destiny 2) nad restarted my PC and there was no more noise upon starting the game again. It happened again today, and I found that it was not my CPU cooler but my PSU fan. I took the PSU out and used a duster to blow out any dust that may have accumulated inside. So far it's fine, I am just wondering if anyone else has had random loud fan noise while under a moderate gaming load. Not sure if I should contact EVGA support or if this is normal behavior? Thanks.

    I know this is a little late to the party here, but I have a nearly identical setup to yours.  Did you get this solved?  I'm having a weird noise on boot that I also think maybe be my EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G6 PSU. For about 5-10 seconds on bootup I will get this noise that sounds like a fan hitting a wire or something, then after post it stops. My Radiators are all positioned with the pump as the lowest point and the tubes on the bottom of the radiators so I have a hard time believing that it could be cavitation in the pumps.
