The power supply on my few-years-old tower PC has started making noise. Probably bearings going bad.
Should I break open the power supply and try to find a matching fan (being respectful of the large capacitors inside), or given its age (4+ years old), would I be smarter to replace the whole power supply?
I am comfortable with the aspect of tearing into the power supply, but I’m wondering if the modest increase in price would warrant having a much newer source of power.
Question 2: If I do replace the power supply, any recommendations as to brand?
Thoughts?
