Rattle from left fan

[OmenGamer]

So yet again i have another problem with my OMEN AX206NP

The left fan never stops and it rattles alot 

I tried opening it up to see if there was something loose but nope

Also when i game or do something graphics intensive there is some sqealing sound coming from the cpu side

What can it be ?

I really dont want to send the computer to the repair as i cant afford the time without it

Hi! @OmenGamer, Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!

I understand you hear a rattling noise from the left fan on your PC.

Don't worry I'll try to help you out.

Did you make any hardware or software changes on your PC?

Try updating BIOS and chipset drivers on your PC and check if it helps.

Please update the BIOS using this link.

Also, update the chipset drivers using this link.

Prevent software from starting when the computer is started.
Close software programs when you are done using them.
Log off the Internet when you are not actively browsing the Internet.
If your computer gets hot when playing games, try playing the game at a lower resolution and with decreased graphics settings.

Refer this article to further troubleshoot fan issues with your PC.

Let me know if this works!

Have a great day! 🙂

@OmenGamer, Thanks for your quick response and time.

I appreciate your efforts for trying out the steps.

As you mentioned the issue still persists after trying out the steps.

It looks like the thermal paste on your laptop has got dissipated or heat sink on your laptop might have gone bad.

Please contact HP support for service options.

Link to contact HP.

Have a great day ahead!

Take Care! 🙂

Nor the heatsinki nor the TIM are bad its the fan 

When i move it by hand it doesnt rotate smoothly loke the other one

So sending it in is the fix

I had this problem too
I saw a video of someone opening the laptop case and found that the blades of fan was touching something which makes rattling sound

Yesterday, I installed (NiceHash Miner 2) Software (Software for bitcoin mining)
I am not going to explain what bitcoin mining means exactly, but in few words its selling your GPU power and get money for it. so it uses MAX PERFORMANCE of your GPU (MAX FAN SPEED).

When I launched the software and tried to test my GPU (GTX 1050Ti) it was launched at max performance with full speed of fan (make sure to check OMEN COMMAND CENTER for GPU UTILIZATION TEMPERATURE (for me it was below 67 celsius)

Launching the fan at full speed probably chipped away that peace that was touching the blade.

So it was unexpected solution but it worked!

DO IT UPON YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY
