Yesterday I played "Fortnite" for about 2 hours on very high settings, so my fans had to work a bit.
Today I start the computer and the fans, I can't identify whether it is the fan of the GPU, the fan of the power supply unit, or maybe another one, still turning as loud as if I were in the game.
Otherwise the computer will always be very quiet when it starts. After a restart, everything was fine again, but it wasn't the first time! What could be the reason, I'm worried.
I also have a custom fan curve for my GPU in case it is important.
Many Thanks.

What graphics card do you have?
Aso okay think you have too little WAtt
So my power supply is not delivering enough? Then why is the computer so loud when it starts? If I only do Office or don't play demanding games, it is quiet at start-up.
For your PC specs, I would recommend 600 watts… Just because of the graphics card and for the future.
Okay, which one would you recommend and is it difficult to put one in?
If you have the money, I would recommend a fully modular 600 watt power supply, that prevents the cable clutter. Which one you choose depends on your case.
Exactly housing, I don't know which one fits into mine. Got this
The properties already say: ATX power supply
Does that mean you are now curious about, power supplies and filter for: ATX and 600Watt. Whether fully modular or partially is your decision.
Oh, I thought the power supplies differ from the size.
ATX is the size, so to speak.
At Comfort itself there's e.g. A 600W power supply and a 600W CM power supply, what's the difference?
CM has fixed cables that can't be removed.
In other words: You don't need these cables = tangled cables
So which is better, in your opinion, CM or no CM? And what is fully modular and not fully mudlar?
Get a fully modular without CM 600-650Watt power supply from: be quiet! Cool Master or Aerocool whatever you want.
Ok, can I get it installed myself if I have no experience with it?
You just have to mount it then plug in the cable. Finished
In case you have problems, there are 1000 videos on Youtube.
Okay ^^. I hope I can do it. Do you think I can continue to play with the power supply until it "breaks", or can it cause damage to other parts, e.g. GPU / CPU?
Nope
Okay so it can't happen well.
But you're sure it's the power supply and not something else?
Otherwise check whether the fan is getting enough power or the cpu fan is too weak to cool the cpu
How do I look this up?
