Hey everyone! I'm having an issue with my 4-year-old Asus Rog Zephyrus laptop that's been making some strange noises for the past week. I believe it's likely related to the fan, as the noise gets quieter when I turn the fan speed down. I haven't dropped or damaged the laptop at all, so this noise just popped up out of nowhere. Has anyone experienced this before, and do you have any solutions? I'd really appreciate your help!

If you just cleaned the fan, there's a good chance the issue is the bearing. Replacement fans can often be found online or at computer parts stores. Just be cautious about taking it to a repair shop; they might overcharge you!
It could be a few different things — dust buildup, unbalanced fan blades, or a busted bearing. Laptop fans typically aren’t serviceable, so you might want to clean it out as best as you can. If the noise persists after that, you’ll likely need a replacement fan.
