PC makes crackling sound

[Phnessed]

Tbh, I’m not sure when this sound started, I just ended up noticing it. Before posting this thread, I have looked onl

ine and couldn’t really find an answer so I just went over here to see if maybe anyone knows what this sound is and what I can do to stop it.

I forgot to mention, when I turn the computer off or in sleep mode, the sound goes away. And, when i turn it on and when i get to the desktop, maybe 5-10 mins using it, the sound starts.

that is the noise of a cable hitting a fan blade if I’m not mistaken.
taking off the side cover will verify that pretty quickly.

Could I recommend, if you haven’t done already, make a system backup.. Just in case.
