Alienware prebuilt PC, RTX 3090 with an i9 11900.

The only way I can describe the noise is that it sounded like a rattlesnake, one of those bugs you hear at night time, or the sound you get when you wind up a wind-up toy. Nothing out of the ordinary is visible when I opened up the PC, but now all my games are stuttering and some won't even open. When I went to shut it down, Windows forced me to update it so I don't know if the stuttering is a result of the forced Windows update or a result of the rattling noise. I've tried Googling and can't find anyone who had a similar problem.

What the heck happened?
 
So we know what we are working with.

Can you Download and run and then post. https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/download
To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:​

In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.​

In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

The last part of each URL is randomized, so only people you provide with the URL will be able to find your profile.

The information given in Speccy cannot be used by anyone to hack your system

Could you also include the power supply specs E.g Cooler Master 850W Gold V2 NOT E.g 850w
