laptop fan gettin too loud...

so u guys think i should open the lappy, and put in a new fan?

after 14months, it's been great, runs great....but just this fan is on constantly now....feel like it's gonna take flight anytime now.

odd tho, my CPU usage fluxes from 0% to about 80% while just having mozilla browser open.

checked for background apps, adaware, defragged....nothing out of the ordinary.

so i think it's just time for a new fan....but after a year? is that normal?

thx for any imput guys.

Well if you have a small fan, it will use it self more rapidly... if it's only a 40mm like I had on my old video card, then yes it's normal after an year... I had to replace the 40mm fan every 2 months or less
 
I dont really see what the problem is I am kinda confused... if its making more noise why not just clean the fan... get a can or air or something... that would be my best guess... I find it idiotic and tedious to sit there and replace a fan that small ever couple of months...
