I bought my computer about 5 years ago. Now it is always buzzing, maybe too much dust inside the computer case. I know very well how to reinstall computer operating system such as Winxp?7?8 and Win10, but I'm not good at cleaning the case! Buzzing noise is annoying,I should have called for computer technical service.

It could be from the cooler, maybe a screw that has come loose!

Thank you. It's an old PC, sometimes I think it is too expensive to ask an expert to fix it

When trouble shooting start with the simplest possible one first so if I were you the first thing I would take a look at are the fans, they are moving parts that would most likely cause vibrations.

You have two fans in your system, one will be used by SMPS and another one by Processor. You unplug everything from CPU and remove the screws. Now slide the side of cabinet and clear it from both side. Now check for the fans don't remove them. Just use brush and clean it.

Some buzzing noises do happen and are more audible during cold winter nights. If you have some screwdriver, gently slide open the cabinet and see the inside with a torch. Don't go for disassembling the parts right away. You can blow off any dust with a plain straw or a jet of air if you have a capable device. Try to wear electrostatic protectors throughout the time, so the intricate piece of hardware don't get any unnecessary voltage.
