It sounds as if it's overheating
Could also possibly the Power supply is going?
Have you cleaned the inside of the computer with compressed air?

Where from the computer is the noise coming from?

Ah, I dont rember the last time i cleaned my pc with comprssed air but i'll do it as soona s possible and see if the noise stops. The noise is coming from the power box inside the computer which is where I attach the other end plug into.
