I've been hearing this odd noise coming from my rig for the past week or so, like an electric grinding sound, and I can't for the life of me figure out what it is, because I can only seem to hear it from a few feet away... if I put my ear to the side of the case, the sound is gone.
My gut tells me it's about time to replace my AIO Intel/Asetek liquid CPU cooler since it's been on there for a good 2+ years now, and I keep my PC on almost 24/7, against my better judgment because whenever I put it to sleep it randomly wakes up a few minutes later. Of course it could also be any of the multitude of fans, I have no way to tell.
Does anyone have experience with the RTS2011LC all-in-one cooler or know how long those things normally last? Is it dangerous to use them until they quit, or should I replace it now (if I can afford it)?
