My Computer has a Very Noisy Fan that can be heard by the people in the room NextDoor.
There are no visable gaps in the tower and I did open everything up and clean the dust up not long ago..
What should I do.

I know liquid cooling is a option but to my knowledge it is expensive

Take your box to a repair shop and ask for a quieter fan.

If it's really noisy it could be broken or dying.

In any case there are likely to be quieter models available if yours is a very loud one.

It is possibly the fan bearing that is noisy or even shot. If it fails so will your computer eventually so it needs some attention. A temporary fix is to lightly spray WD40 into the fan when it is not rotating then restart the PC and give it another quick spray while it is going. That should quieten it for a little while till you get it changed. Changing a fan is simple 4 screws and one plug.

Dear Friend,
You have to purchase an appropriate CPU Cooler either from CoolerMaster or from ThermalTake. To test the airflow use smoke.I am just 13 and a RHCE. Contact : kumaran.radhakrishnan@yahoo.co.in.

replace the fan, they are very less costly -- it truly is, in case you do not purchase it at comp usa. less costly followers that are in maximum pc skill resources are the only best reason that skill resources get replaced. if you're accessible with a screwdriver, then it truly is fantastically person-friendly to change. If not, have someone who's known with what the hell they are doing do it. suggestion, replacing the fan....take it in with you once you purchase a alternative. the distinctive followers and how they are connected to the container can make you dizzy. desire this facilitates Peace .
