since this is the computer problems thread I recently got some odd problem where I hear this weird revving sound from inside my computer, kind of sounds like a playstation controller vibrating at full blast on and off in like 5 bursts every 10 seconds or so, and just now I hear this weird high pitched squeaking along with it that almost sounds like a bird chirping, and this seems to cause mad slowdown on my computer like I only have 1GB of RAM or something and every program freezes or just goes super slow, but this is intermittent so far I usually just restart and it calms down for like 12 hours operating as normal
here's an audio recording of it, it didnt pick up the revving sound but it seriously sounds like there's a fucking little bird in there what le fuck

ok I checked inside the case and the main fan and mb fan seem to be spinning fine and I am p sure the meme sounds are coming from the cooling system, I think I have a liquid cooling system since there's two big thick BBC looking tubes coming down
but then yesterday I was playing overwatch and my comp crashed and now it wont boot windows 10 properly, I tried doing those options like reverting to a previous version of w10 or removing all my "apps" that never ever work and it gave me some weird thing saying my iROG-1 is updating and it took 12 hours to reach 100% and then did nothing but restart and start again from 0%, I looked it up and I think this is my motherboard being fucked idk, so I just restarted again and now I have the BIOS again, how do I unhack myself I was in the middle of making a megathread REEEEEEE

08-13-2018The revving sound could be a fan close to failure. Download HWmonitor i think it should show fan speeds. Bearings on fans last so long depending on the bearing type. They run out of oil over time and stop cooling your system.

HW monitor should also show system temps and is better used on a second screen to watch in real time. Cpu and gpu should be good under 70 degrees celcius on 100% workload but they are designed to handle up to 90 or even 100 degrees celcius but thats very bad for durability.
When it makes sounds watch your temps. You can leave the side of the case open and look in with a flashlight when it is making sounds to determine where its coming from.*call centre crew*

08-13-2018Sleeve bearing fans are cheap and fail the fastest. Ball bearing fans can last a while but cost more. Premium fans have some new designs and cost more but can last years but at a high cost.

08-13-2018Just listened to the bird sound, sounds like a fan bearing experiencing friction. Motherboard would probably slow down performance (mhz on cpu and gpu) to save face on high temps.
