17 R5, fan noise
I have had an Alienware 17 R5 since 2019. It has been a steady workhorse. Recently I have ran into some issues. Firstly, my laptop now makes a loud noise and you can feel the vibration. I assumed the issue was the CPU fan so I bought a new one and replaced it. This didn't fix the issue so I bought a new GPU fan and a hard drive and got it installed but this noise still happens sometimes when you take the computer out of sleep mode or turn it on. I have run all the hardware tests and they have all come back negative for issues. My last attempt to fix it was updating my bios to the most recent version but, that didn't fix it. All my drivers are now up to date. I have searched around the Internet and haven't seen anyone else with a similar issue. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to a video showing what it sounds like.
