    For about a month now whenever my fan is working im hearing some scratching sound kinda like a broken HDD noise. Don't think its affecting the temps yet but should i be worried about it or is there an easy way to fix?
    The air movement sounds constant and gpu temp idle gets to 50c then fan gets it down to 40 and turns off and repeats. Just a little irritating.

    Thanks

    Ahh i thought i could just open it to see if its fixable. I think i'll wait till it affects me more or warrenty it close to ending before i do anything. The sound quieter longer the laptop is on anyway. THanks!
