Hey everyone. I recently bought the Dell xps 15 and it is great. However, I have noticed some noise from the top left corner and I am having a hard time neglecting it. Is that normal?
Thanks in advance!
 
Solution
There are 2 sources of noise in a laptop: the fan, which keeps your CPU and GPU cool, and the HDD which has a magnetic round plate in it, that spins at high RPM. Since you said top-left corner, that is the fan. It's normal. If the fan stopped, then you should be worried.
