So after plugging in a external case fan. My fan starts making weird noises and slows down my pc, It drops to like 0.89 GHZ. Mine total is 3.40 GHZ | CPU Throttling is off tho- It freezes my PC for a sec. I use a SSD, It suddenly started happening while i was installing a game at night and fan noises started happening and idk, Next morning i woke up and turned it on!
It's extremely slow.

Is it a laptop or desktop?

Is i custom made or OEM?
If custom made, do you know whats in it? list of parts would help solve problem
If OEM, what make/model

What is the external fan plugged into? is it running off the PC or plugged in to a wall? I only asked as I thought maybe its power drain was what was slowing PC down.
