is this normal AVC Cpu fan noise on my alienware x51 r1?
Hi i use to have this nasty vibrating on my case but i opened it and fixed that a few days ago and now i hear this and wonder is it normal fan noise or should i get a replacement fan?

Hello Cruser12!
It seems that the fan is touching a cable, have checked all the connections inside?

I have nothing is in it's way the only cable up there is the light cable and when i closed the case i made sure it went back along the side like it was, I'm not sure why it's making this noise it's a AVC fan ball bearing i think they are not sure maybe its just getting noise as i leave my machine on all the time, as i run some programs in the background. Should i call dell and RMA the fan?

thanks a bunch they got here and he installed them although i had to tell him how to take the system apart as he never worked on this particular model before but he was a awesome tech.
