XPS 13 7390, Fan Noise
My Dell XPS 13 (7390) is a year old and has been a bit noisy. But it's now started making really weird sounds - getting loud and then doing zipping sounds. Have been trying different tests - reduced the screen resolution from the recommended to 1920x1080 and that helped quiet the fan. I turned off Sound Enhancements (no change). Will now try your recommendations and see if that helps. thanks.
This link was something that seemed similar.

My new 7390 just started having exactly the same problem - any resolution? I am on the phone with Dell Support right now and they seem perplexed.

Go back to 1.1.3 bios dated December 11. Mine was working perfectly until bios update, then started that mechanical rattle. Not very noisy but still annoying. Another problem was the DELL logo after sleep, and then logo returns to garbage when you press any key. You could still hear that windows was alive in the background. DELL really messed up with the 2 recent bios updates.

I have an XPS 9370 and mine occasionally does the rattling/cackling noise. It has been getting more frequent. I don't have any issues with the Dell Logo or such, but is reverting back to the BIOS the fix? Or could it be more an hardware issue? I saw in some post that the technician engineer knew that it's bad fan.
I need to find out what the part number is so that i can buy it and replace it myself.

Same here... Less than a year old.
I suspect one of these:
- dirt or something mechanical fell in a ventilator
- the axle of a ventilator has somehow become loose.

Same issue. One fan start making noise, than stop, than make super fast spins and stops. I think its a problem with van, coz I was looking with flash from other side and I do see that one fan is working fine.
