usually after about 30 minutes of the computer being on, the fan (i think) makes a very loud whirring noise. ive tried blowing compressed air in the fans but it didnt seem to help.
should i assume the thing is busted and i need a new one? --- despair-inducing ... Copied to Clipboard!

The sound is probably the fan. Some power supplies have a variable speed fan that kicks in at higher speed as it heats up.

fan berings are often cheep, the fan is the easiest to replace part of the power supply.
