So, in order to cover all my bases, I decided to open up my computer and blow it out with canned air. So I did that. I noticed a bit of dust around my cpu fan and heat sink, so I spent some extra time blowing it out.
Now the CPU fan is loud as fuck. It's like Pavarotti. I guess I blew dust "into" some part of it that I shouldn't have or something. Now I am considering taking the fan and heat sink off and cleaning off the processor. IDK.
edit: So a couple of bumps quieted the fan down. I suppose there was dust in there or something.
