Hi,
So I have 3 total case fans in my setup, one in the back and two in the front. However, recently my front two have started having issues. My front fans are aligned so that there's one above and one below the other. My top fan doesn't seem to spin as fast anymore and makes a lot more noise than normal, and my bottom fan has stopped spinning altogether. I was going to just simply unplug them from the motherboard and buy new ones, but these seem to be connected to the PSU which makes me unsure as to what I should do. I've already cleaned them but it did not help, and I also tried plugging them into the motherboard but that didn't help either. The fans are what came with the computer when I bought it about 3 years ago. I will try to attach some pictures as well because I'm not really sure on what kind of connection the fan uses.

Sorry if it's confusing, this is my first time dealing with a fan that isn't connected straight to the motherboard.
