Hello there. 

 

I have been playing with computer hardware and software for a decade or two. And last night my computer started making a weird vibrating noise. I quickly noticed that it was coming from the right fan in the computer. And in fear of it going to many RPM i quickly closed my computer. 

 

I went to the store again today and talked about what to do with it since it only did it then. But today it made the noise again. And again i noticed it coming from the right fan inside the computer, the noise is clearly of one or multiple of the blades hitting the edges of its chamber. When the computer is picked up the noise somewhat lessens but is still present. Im curious to how far my warranty goes with these gaming computers, since i know some of them are able to be upgraded. 

 

Can i unscrew and check the fans myself and find a solution and rechange the fan possibly broken or repair it or will that break my warranty? 

 

Thanks in regards. 

 

Edit : The computer was brought 2 months ago from a store
