Posted November 1, 2014 Hello!, one of my 3 NZXT FN-120's is making a slight clicking sound. I just added 3 new fans today, and one clicks just enough to annoy me. (its at 0 rpm currently lol) Any ideas to help stop that noise? as far as i can see, there are no obstructions. Thanks!

Posted November 1, 2014 Could be bent a little bit. Does the centre spin evenly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 1, 2014 yes, should i not do that with rifle bearings? Not necessarily but the ticking has to do with how magnets are used in the rotor. Higher quality fans tend to not have this issue.
