I've just built a new PC and I'm hearing a buzzing sound while it's idling on the desktop. It's different from the coil whine I experienced with my old PC. Could this buzzing be coming from the motherboard? Should I be concerned about it? I also shared a video link to help show the sound.

Sounds like it might just be fan noise you're hearing. Try unplugging each fan one at a time while the PC is off, or use fan control software to see if the noise goes away. If it does, it’s probably just a fan. Also, check for anything vibrating in the case—loose screws or panels can create weird sounds too. Don't forget to listen closely to the power supply as they can sometimes make buzzing noises, especially if they're having issues.
Yeah, it can be tricky to pick up on video. I’ll definitely give those suggestions a shot! Thanks for the help!
