Razer laptop fan rattle

mtwest

Have 10-ish month old Razer and starting to notice that the fans are starting to exhibit a metal/mechanical clicking noise to them when in "Quiet Mode". As if the fan isn't rotating smoothly on the bearings or something like that. Anybody else had this problem? Thermals seem fine, but as is the case with Razer's machines, the fans spin a LOT, so they get a decent amount of use and wear. Just trying to make sure I am not tilting at windmills and if something is wrong, to deal with Razer support before the warranty is up.

Now you know why Razer laptop sucks.

 

I suggest you to return it, however, have fun dealing with Razer support as their support is bad

I have had nothing but good interactions with Razer's support service to be honest. And the noise could just be the reflected sounded reverberating off the desk I have the laptop on. Just was asking the community if anyone else had heard of similar issues. Thats all.

I've always thought of Razer's systems, especially the more recent Blade Stealths, as excellent machines with really good, durable construction. Right up there with the XPS 13 on my personal "Best Ultrabooks Ever" list.

Have you tried opening it up to see if anything has become loose?
