On my motherboard there is a tiny fan and its making a buzzing sound it has never done this before its something that has just started today. It is running it just kinda stalls and is very loud, should I be worried about it?

Awesome. And are they easy to replace?

Bearings tend to fail after a while. How old is the fan?

Also check the obvious and make sure that the cable from the fan (or any other cable) isn't resting to close to the fan blades.

I checked the cable and its not close to the blades. Its about 2 years old maybe close to 3
