my new pc (around 6 months) has been making this awful sound.

Every time i tab onto a diffrent app or do stuff in general my pc makes this whir/thump like sound. Is it a problem?

I very much overestimated the size of this random amazon desk but still

This is a "laptop setup". A long time ago due to personal circumstances I had to chose mobility over MAXIMUM POWER and it wasn't long before I realized it's actually quite practical so I've been choosing mobility ever since. And yes, this particular laptop isn't the most mobile but it still fits in a backpack unlike an actual desktop.

Anyway

Last picture is from the desk's amazon page so you could somewhat see what it looked like originally.

I've basically removed the 2 drawers on each side with the idea being that the middle section will be for the power supply + cables. I had to raise the board on it so it'd be at equal height with the side boards since it wasn't originally. I also had to make space in it for the arms + a hole underneath for the cables to move from the top to the bottom of the desk.

The initial idea I now realize was rather naive, namely to have the laptop + the cooler on a monitor arm. To be fair, the arm holds. What fails to hold is the plate on which the laptop sits - it tilts downwards hence why you're seeing the *definitely* temporary solution which is to just place a cardboard box underneath for support.

The 2 cable trays underneath the desk weren't there originally either nor was the drawer but I'd reckon they make a nice addition.

Laptop: Legion 9i gen 10 with 5090M, Ultra 9 275HX and 64GB DDR5 5200MT/s
Monitor: Legion Pro 27Q-10 2K QHD OLED (26.5")

Is this a good deal? $380

With the current gpa market in mind- Buying this set of 32GB for $380. Corsair currently showing on their site for $600.

Edit: Found new local at micro center for $40 more. Also many deals and bundles for CPU, Ram, & mobo that make much more sense than buying this used set alone. Thank you everyone for the opinions!

my desktop has been having trouble running even the simplest of games on a 3060, and my memory is almost full constantly, and i've also downloaded some stagnant files on my computer i dont use anymore, most being browser games and the like. I've chatted with my friends who are versed in the topic and they suggested i reset my PC and install tiny11 or linux, which im not entirely dreading either option.

i just want to know how i should go about things before i eventually reset my PC,
I mainly use my pc for gaming, and i dont know which OS is better for my uses, i know linux is difficult to learn to say the least, and windows is at best, a solid OS... once you've spent like an hour removing bloatware by downloading software to remove that bloatware.

i want to avoid making any of the same mistakes i made when i first setup my desktop, so if you have any software/app recommendations they would be very welcome. (i will research them before downloading them)

i've owned my pc for a little over 2 years now, and the specs are:
CPU - intel i5-12400F
RAM - 16GB DDR4
GPU - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
WiFi - 6 AX201 160MHz

and just for a little context, heres what my task manager looks like:
