that sounds like a destroyed fan to me, ballbearing probably fucked

You said ‘dying chicken’ but I didn’t expect that sound. Thank you Charmander for making my day

Definitely sounds like a fan going bad. If you can’t identify just by using your ear, there’s a program called Fan Control which should let you turn off basically every fan except the PSU fan, so you can figure out which one. If you’re not able to totally turn them off (mine doesn’t let me kill the CPU cooler fans or a specific set of case fans for whatever reason), you can just ramp them up or down and you will probably hear the noise change.

Turkey infused case fan.

yr fan…
if u want it to shut up, smack it or push on the center hard enough, it will shut up for awhile

Percussive maintenance required.

Fan bearing gone. Try to locate which fan it is by sense of hearing. If you are careful you can actually stop a fan by pushing your finger against the hub. Stopping it for a second won’t do any damage but don’t hold it for too long. Its probably a GPU fan and you can buy replacements from Ebay or Ali Express.
NB NB DO not touch the fan in the power supply because that is surrounded by hazardous voltages and is not a user replaceable part. If you think the power supply fan is shot then you need to replace the power supply.

Could be the fan

Fan bearing crapped out

99% certain that’s a fan, most likely a bearing gone bad, if you’ve got a fan controller or a daisy-chained fan setup, just disconnect them 1-by-1 to identify the issue and just swap it out.
Obviously, if it’s a GPU fan, then that’s a different story.

Did you check to make sure it isn’t a dying chicken? On the real tho, my AIO pump sounded like that after a hard drive install and i just had to tilt my PC (almost laying it down on its side) and it stopped. Not sure what else u got going on in there tho.

Sounds like the water pump is done for if you are using a AIO cooler. Or a fan bearing.

Unplug a fan at a time until you find the one that is dead
Agreeable_Experiance
It’s definitely a fan that needs replacing

Just keep an eye on your temps while your pc is running with this issue

I literally had this problem couple days ago. Mine was a gpu fan. I teardown gpu completely and oiled the fan. But u need to open the fan but its not easy thing to do. After i applied oil my problem about the fan is gone and silent as day one.
First u need to identify which fan is gone bad.
Mine was coal powered train btw 🙂

Either a janky $10 fan, or the nastiest coil whine I’ve ever heard.

Don’t worry, that’s just Jeremy from Smiling Friends.
Its either a fan. Or if it is a new GPU it can be coil whine. I have heard some diabolical GPUs sound like that.

If you’re lucky, a fan.
If you’re unlucky, you’re about to lose a hard drive.
samj00
Is it overclucked?
Proof_Programmer
sounds like either a liquid pump failing/eating air bubbles, or a bad fan. if it’s the fan, you could honestly try just assisting it moving if it’s struggling, it might fix itself and quiet down if you are lucky like I was lol

Это похоже на подшипник водяной помпы. У тебя водяное охлаждение? Было такое, при включении сперва такой звук, потом исчезает. Притрется со временем и будет работать нормально.

Thought you were exaggerating. Turns out it DOES exactly sound like a dying chicken. I’m not much of a PC guy but that sounds like a fan.
