  Yes, it is normal to hear clicking sounds when starting up a PSU for cryptocurrency mining. These sounds are usually caused by the PSU's internal components, such as relays or capacitors, engaging and disengaging. As long as the PSU is functioning properly and providing stable power to your mining rig, there is no need to worry about these clicking sounds. However, if you notice any other issues with your PSU or experience frequent power interruptions, it is recommended to consult a professional for further assistance.

  Absolutely! Hearing clicking sounds when starting up a PSU for cryptocurrency mining is completely normal. It's just the PSU's way of letting you know that it's powering up and getting ready to supply electricity to your mining rig. As long as your mining rig is functioning properly and you're not experiencing any power-related issues, there's no need to be concerned about these clicking sounds. Happy mining!
