So I have 2 fractal design Venturi HP-PWM 140mm case fans, on the front of a Fractal design define s.

 

From like 2 days I am noticing some ticking sound coming out of the motor. Sometimes its not there, sometimes it is there. What should I do?

I think its coming from the center bearings?

They are almost 8 months old.

What is the life on those fans?

Will fractal design consider them in warranty?

 

I need those 40 PCI-e express lanes.

Does stopping the fans stop the noise?

yes

I'm not sure if Fractal Design would replace them for warranty but it doesn't hurt to ask.
