I just built a new computer yesterday as a secondary computer for my friend to play games on over my LAN. The computer works fine, everything setup properly and I haven't had any problems while using it. The only problem is that after the computer has been on for a little while, it starts getting louder and louder, eventually it gets real loud and starts to vibrate. It still doesn't cause any problems with the computer but as you can imagine its extremely annoying. It seems far to louds and shaky to be just a noisy computer, and it gets worse while its on. Sometimes it will slow back down again, but it always gets going again soon after.
I opened it up while it was doing this, and I don't think there is any way that it could be the case fan or the CPU fan, I thought it might be the power supply fan so I swapped the power supply but the shaking still started after a few minutes. Any ideas as to what is causeing this?
I'm relatively sure it's not the DVD drive, because that makes a differenet and quieter noise. Its not the Hard Drive, so that only leaves a fan somewhere, the parts I have that have fans are the
CPU: P4 2.67 ghz
Power Supply: Antec 300w
Case: DYNEX ATX Mid tower
Motherboard: ASUS
Graphics Card: BFG Geforce 5900
