When you say PSU, do you mean just the general area of the case, or specifically the Power Supply Unit?

By seizure, do you mean it locks up?

I'd be wondering about the Hard Disk Drive.

I sticked my head inside computer and I'm pretty much sure it is PSU, yes it locks up just for a second then you can hear click and it move somooth again and like that couple times per minute.I'm more than sure it is not hard disk
