Third power Supply about to die in a year and a half.

Hello,

I would like to start that I am not very technical when it commes
to computer hardware. I have bought my computer about a year and half
ago and so far replaced 2 power sypplies and now getting ready from
doing it again. The computer is not from one of the major places but
from a custom build shop. The first time it happened the computer
started shutting down by itself and after couple attempts to boot up
died. A quick call to the place and i was told my power supply died
and then they would send me a replacement. Everything went well for
the next 5 months after which the power supply started to emit
painful high piched sounds that was really loud.

This time I went to the store and purchased a 600 watts Cooler Master
the first two were 550 watts dont remember the brand, now the third
power supply Cooler Master has started to omit winding kind of a noise
with occasional thumping or banging sounds from low to high.

If there is any additioanal information that would help I would be
glad to provide.

Any ideas why is that happening or I should just go and buy a fourth
one?
