Sounds like it could be the cooling fan.
That may need to be replaced soon.

Most probably the fans are making the noise, if you bought cheap fans and you have a couple of them, also fans that are broken make more noise, I had a friend his computer was so loud just because his fan went crazy or something.
The pc could be stuttering, like its not places firmly on something or the computer is light, try adding weight on it to see if it helps.

The fan on your computer has a no longer ordinary existence, what with those temperatures and dirt, combating and commencing and how briskly it has to bypass. frequently whilst the fan gets noisy its because of the fact the main bearing lubricant has dried out. you will possibly could desire to do away with the fan. sparkling it gently of dirt. in the midsection there is usualy a around decal which you will intently peel off (considering which you choose to adhere it back) and right here you are able to drop slightly 3in a million or comparable oil. enable gravity to feed the oil into the bearing spinning and pushing/pulling fan gently. ( you are able to completely dismantle sparkling and lubricste, yet it is way less annoying). If there grew to become into no harm to start with it is going to run silently.

Fan is shot? Replace it.. Cleaning a fan doesnt fix it if the damage is done.
CdRom has a bad disc in it?
Sometimes a video card has a fan on it too. Could be that fan. Fan on power supply. If your hearing a noise then it's probably one of the fans.

I had the same problem a little while ago! Pull the case off and youll probally find its jam packed full of dust and just needs to be cleaned. If that doesnt fix it you will need to replace the fan.
Good luck

Your fans could be getting old and/or clogged, or you may need more fans.
I'd advise taking it to a PC specialist and getting an opinion on the possible cause, and seeing if there's any reasonable solutions, (luckily, fans are fairly inexpensive).

Maybe you should get new fans in it. That's what made mine so noisy. I got new ones for like 3 bucks each or cheaper and it's definitely improved.
