So I thought it was time to ask this question as I've been anxious about this for a while. About 3 months ago I noticed that my PC was louder than usual. Not SUPER loud, but louder. There's also sometimes a crackling noise here and there... a slight buzz. The buzz sort of comes and goes, but the loudness remains. Sometimes it sounds like it's coming from the power supply.
I took it apart and cleaned it and it actually stopped for about 10 minutes and then came back. My dad told me that I shouldn't worry about it and it's totally fine, but I'm concerned about it that's why I'm here asking people with more knowledge on this stuff. Also sometimes this buzzing noise stops if I turn the computer on it's side, then when I put it back vertically upright the buzz will come back, but usually this buzz comes and goes. The loudness is always there now.
Another big thing i've noticed is everytime I start my computer I get a message before it loads. The message is something along the lines of. "This product is severed by one or more of the following paitents: US5, 307, 459, US5, 434, 572
Realtek PCis GDE Family Controller Series."
I should also add I sometimes get blue screens. Maybe one every 3 weeks.
