Hey folks.

So a weird issue has cropped up the last couple days where a rattling starts after a few hours, under no load. It's irritating enough that I have to shut down but I can't restart right away, it just won't boot. Wait 5 or 10 minutes and its all good for another few hours.

Google says it's a bearing somewhere that might be on the way out, expanding from heat and then catching a cable or edge.

Do you reckon that could be it? What else could it be? Should I just take it in for a lookover/repair? Any feedback as always is much appreciated!
 
GPU fan issue? i'd pull that & run on onboard & see if it makes the issue go away.
Guess if not there then take a look at the CPU fan, monitoring temps might give some clues.
