Answer 1

yup it is

Answer 2

1. Open the case and use a can of compressed air to clean it out. It's likely clogged with dust. MAKE SURE THE COMPUTER IS OFF.

2. If it is still making the noise after it has been cleaned, check to see if the fans are spinning.

3. If the fans are spinning, check to see if you have a CD in the CD-ROM drive. This can cause it to make "reading" noises.

4. If the above do not work, you might have a problem with your hard drive.

Answer 3

Possibly cpu fan. If the processor is heating up due to improper cooling. It will cause the processor to throttle and slow itself down as a protective measure.

Make sure that the heatsink is seated properly and that the fan is correctly mounted onto the heatsink. But don't remove the heatsink! If you due then you will have to reapply the thermal compound before reinstalling it.
