I just built a new PC, and I'm noticing a strange pulsating vibration when it's under load. It's not rattling or anything, but I can hear and feel it on the table to the point where it's quite annoying. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

You might want to take off the side panel and see if you can pinpoint where the vibration is coming from. Sometimes it's just a loose screw or something that needs to be tightened.
It might be an unbalanced fan. Have you noticed if the vibration changes with the fan speed? Sometimes the fans can cause a lot of noise and vibration, especially when they ramp up under load.
Yeah, the heavier the load, the quicker the vibration pulses. It’s really noticeable!
