Alright so recently my PC has started to make occasional loud noise when gaming. It keeps happening like every minute or so. So i pulled up NVIDIA Performance Overlay to see what might be causing it and the noise keeps happening when my GPU temp hits like 86°C than it goes back down to 82 and minute later back to 86 and with that comes the noise. I've had my current PC build for 4 years and back than i had no issues playing the latest games.

Hey there,

If you system is 4 years old, I'd suggest giving at a good clean out. You can use a can of compressed air, and give it a good dustout. See how temps are at that point.

Another thing might be to consider a repaste of the thermal compound on your GPU. Normally they last about 5- years, but it may probably reduce your temps by a big amount.

Please list your full pc specs, including case, PSU, fans, ram, CPU, GPU etc
