Question: My Computer Fan is loud, so i smack it.? My computer is loud, so i smack it to make it quieter.\nMy fan is 2 years old. How long should fans in computers last? I got my gaming computer from cyberpower systems, like 2 years ago tho. I can play CS:S and stuff like that. But my computer has always been loud, but now my old fan is LOUD, alignment in it is off i think. Smacking it works for like 10 seconds. okay maybe 5... How long should fans usually last and where can i buy a good quality fan without spending 100 bux?

Answer: fans last as long as they last.\nyour fan is noisy due to dust build up on the fans spindle\nshort term fix if it is your PSU fan , use an air duster to blow into the fan clearing the dust,\n\nif it is just a case fan then you can also spray the fan spindle with electrical contact cleaner.
