Question New *used* Asus Zephyrus S GX701 with rattling fan

[Cryptikz]

I just purchased a GX701 off amazon and I'm very happy with the laptop itself, the only problem is there seems to be a rattling sound coming from the left fan when the fans are at lower speeds, when the laptop is under load it sometimes goes away or is drowned out, but when in light use I hear the rattling.

Should I try to get a replacement, repair, or live with it?

You can try cleaning the fan, it's not that hard at all and might fix your problem. Maybe see if something is hitting it or if you have to clean it out.
