HELP: Dell XPS13 9350 LOUD FAN

Hello,

I recently purchased a brand new Dell XPS13 9350. Since the first day there has been an excessively loud high pitched whir that persists for a long time, even with light usage. It is so loud that is extremely distracting and my ears ache after a while.

I have tried calling support and it was clear they did not have a good understanding of the problem. After having them take me through a few system recoveries (on a brand new system, mind you) I gave up trying to to fix this through technical support.

I have updated my BIOS and drivers. Specs: Intel i5 Skylake, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 Home 64 Bit. 

Any advice on how to fix this? It's extremely disappointing to have such a problem on a brand new computer. 

Thanks.

Hi,

Regret the inconvenience caused! 

I would ask you to provide the some more information,

*What is the version of BIOS installed on the system?

*Is the loud noise accompanied with system overheating?

Do send the service tag of the system via private message so that I can check the system specifications to assist you better.

Awaiting your response.

Regards,
