Noise coming from a computer

Go to solution Solved by BigDamn,

Sounds like a bearing in one of your fans. You can grease up the bearing (I use WD-40 even though people say not to) and it should clear that up. You can also replace just the fan, no need to replace the heatsink.

Strange noise is coming from a computer, i don't know if it's fan or psu fan. but looks like it's coming from stock intel cooler. 

 

I will include audio file, you can hear it and how it sounds.

 

if this is bad sign or it's normal. do i need to upgrade my cpu cooler?
