So I have an ASRock X570M Pro4 motherboard. Truth be told, I only bought it because it was available as an open-box return item at Microcenter for a steep discount. I planned on getting the much cheaper B450M Pro4.
Anyway, there is a tiny little fan directly over the chipset, attached to the "m.2 armor" This fan sucks. It sounds awful. I've taken it apart and tried to see if there's something obvious causing it to sound extra bad but it looks to just be a really cheap little awful fan.
What can I do about it? Could I get away with just removing it? >_>
Or, probably a better idea, replace it with a better fan?
I could take it apart and get a photo of what it looks like with the 'armor' plate taken off if that would help.
