My laptop is about 1.5 months old and the fan has started to make a strange sound. It is a low buzzing. The fans are definitely still working as my temperatures while gaming are low, but I'm afraid there is something wrong with the fan. This was not always there, and is present only when the fans are going slow (2200-2300 rpm). When I put the fans on max, they sound normal. Any thoughts?

    I would suggest you to report this issue to acer support to ensure the issue being taken care while its still under warranty.

    Try lifting the laptop up when its making the noise and see if the sound goes away.

    It could be how your table is that causes the noise.
    On my Helios 500 it makes a noise only on my coffee table everywhere else is fine.
