Some are low-pitched, others are high-pitched, and some are accompanied by other noises like rattling and grinding. Certain sounds are indicative of certain problems.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a buzzing noise accompanied by a <strong>rattling sound<\/strong> usually means you have a loose part hitting other hardware while <strong>buzzing with a grinding or clicking noise<\/strong> is usually indicative of a hard drive issue.<\/p>\n<p>If your fans are <strong>whirring excessively alongside buzzing<\/strong>, then it\u2019s likely your cooling fans are faulty or clogged with dust. A <strong>high-pitched buzzing noise<\/strong> is a telltale sign of coil whine (more on this later).<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve got good ears, you may be able to deduce exactly where the buzzing noise is coming from and what\u2019s causing it, but if this isn\u2019t possible you\u2019ll need to try out several troubleshooting methods.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Troubleshooting_a_Computer_making_buzzing_noises_7_Common_Causes_and_Fixes\"><\/span>Troubleshooting a Computer making buzzing noises: 7 Common Causes and Fixes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before proceeding with any troubleshooting, make sure you\u2019ve done a full restart and updated everything.

Pay special attention to the fans, intake vents, and corners of the case, as these are the areas that usually end up clogged in dust. If necessary, use a microfiber cloth to dislodge stubborn grime.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, conquering the dust has conquered the buzzing noise and given your ears some peace.<\/p>\n<p>Make it a habit to give your PC a deep clean every 3 to 6 months to prevent the buzzing noise from arising again.

Loose Components Causing Buzzing Noises<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another common culprit of buzzing noises is a loose screw or cable bumping against other components.<\/p>\n<p>As we mentioned earlier, this will usually be accompanied by another noise, like a rattling sound, depending on where and which hardware component the loose part is interfering with.<\/p>\n<p>A simple way to determine whether a loose part is the culprit is to gently tilt your PC from side to side and listen out for anything rattling or moving about (make sure to turn off your PC and disconnect the cables<em> before<\/em> tilting it!).<\/p>\n<p>If you hear something, you\u2019ll need to open up your chassis and hunt for the loose component. We recommend using a flashlight for better visibility.<\/p>\n<p>Do keep in mind that some loose parts may have gotten stuck between other components, so you\u2019ll want to open up your chassis to double-check that there\u2019s nothing amiss even if you don\u2019t hear any rattling.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll next want to make sure all the cables are properly plugged in and aren\u2019t knocking against anything, especially the fans.<\/p>\n<p>Tidying up cables may not sound like a fun way to spend your weekend, but it\u2019s definitely worth it; it\u2019ll help your PC have the maximum lifespan possible (and of course help prevent infuriating buzzing noises).<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few cable management tips that\u2019ll help keep tangles and obstructions at bay:<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25362\" src=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management.jpg\" alt=\"PC Case Features for Good Cable Management\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-1024x540.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-768x405.jpg 768w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-1536x810.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25362 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%202048%201080%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"PC Case Features for Good Cable Management\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%202048%201080%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-1024x540.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-768x405.jpg 768w, https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management-1536x810.jpg 1536w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/g100.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/media\/2023\/10\/PC-Case-Features-for-Good-Cable-Management.jpg\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Upgrade to a large case with built-in cable management features<\/strong> like rubberized routing holes or hooks.

We\u2019re sorry to give you this news.<\/p>\n<p>As we mentioned earlier, you\u2019re more likely (but not always!) to hear grinding and clicking noises alongside buzzing if the hard drive is the problem, so have a listen out for that too.<\/p>\n<p>Other symptoms of a failing hard drive include heat issues, data corruption, slowdowns, and frequent freezes.<\/p>\n<p>You can run a S.M.A.R.T. test (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) to find out if your hard drive is failing:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Type \u201ccmd\u201d in the Windows search bar and open up the command prompt<\/li>\n<li>When the command prompt pops up, type in \u201cwmic diskdrive get status\u201d and hit enter<\/li>\n<li>If the status is \u201cOk,\u201d it means Windows hasn\u2019t detected any hard drive problems, but if it reads \u201cPred Fail\u201d an issue has been found. You should immediately back up any data on an external storage device.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If your hard drive is starting to fail, you\u2019ll need to replace it as soon as possible (or speak to your manufacturer for further troubleshooting steps).<\/p>\n<p>Do note that the built-in SMART feature might not pick up everything, so it\u2019s worth using third-party HDD\/SDD health monitoring programs like <a href=\"https:\/\/crystalmark.info\/en\/software\/crystaldiskinfo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CrystalDiskInfo<\/a>.
