So I was playing Crimson Desert a fairly demanding game in cinematic mode. No issues then suddenly it sounded like a wood chipper. I originally thought it was one of my intake fans but turned out to be one of the 5080 fans. I instantly feared the worst.

Luckily the issue was that when AI ran the cable for the graphics card underneath and as it heated up and relaxed it pulled up into the fan

All I had to do was route the cable safely and all was well.

I’ve seen another person having this issue on another forum so I’m sure someone else here will encounter it.

Easy fix but scary moment
