I have just built my first home server; after the first boot, the PSU fan runs at full speed. I couldn’t figure out what the issue was. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Specs:
- 16GB DDR4 RAM
- Seagate IronWolf Pro 2x 4TB
- 1TB nvme Samsung 970 evo plus
- Gigabyte H610M S2H V2 Intel H610 LGA1200 DDR4 Micro-ATX Motherboard
- DeepCool GAMMAXX GT CPU Cooler A-RGB 120mm PWM Addressable RGB LED Fan Intel AMD
- 750W EVGA Power Supply Unit / PSU VAT INC
- Intel core i5-12400t QS 6c/12t Support ASUS ROG Strix B660-I Gaming WiFi LGA1700.
Are there any switches on the psu itself? Whats the exact model of power supply? “750W EVGA” tells us almost nothing.
RMx Series™ RM750x — 750 Watt 80 PLUS Gold Fully Modular ATX PSU (UK)
That’s a Corsair PSU.

Link to Reddit sadly, but more people seem to have “this issue”. If you also have a GPU in there, you might just be taking too much from the PSU to idle.
