Fan noise normal?

[Walker_7]

After installing my wraith spire, I notice it makes this very low pitch, not super loud, but consistent noise, wondering if it’s normal, here is a video demonstrating the noise. I can really only tell if it’s quiet in the room.

Nope, sounds like the fan blade is not balanced correctly and it's defective when I listen to it.

Is this a serious issue? Or more just an annoyance?

It's annoying as hell because it's a very chaotic type of sound. When a normal fans spins fast and loud at least it's synchronous. This one is like quiet little fingernails on a chalkboard in the back of your head, you can barely hear it but it will annoy you .

Obviously it did, that's why you're asking.

Mechanically it will probably keep working.

with cpu fans check that the fans are not hitting the power cables. also see if it a clip on fan it was put on right.
