CPU fan makes loud noise when spinning

CPU fan makes loud noise when spinning

I don't exactly know what type of CPU fan I have but whenever I try to play games and the fan starts to spin faster, it makes a loud noise. I have cleaned out the fan with some compressed air to see fit that would work and although it quieted it a little bit the noise has still not gone away. This has caused me to have to downgrade in some games in order to play them and even then it causes me lag and dropped frames. I checked the graphics card and everything seemed alright there and as far as I know everything is up to date. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated.

@babygiraffe this sounds like a fan going bad. Replace the fan to eliminate the excessive noise.

"If this is the intel stock cooler then the CPU cooler would need to be replaced.

Hyper evo 212 / Cryorig h7 is what I recommend."
