    May need cleaning, check after disconnecting the battery first and cleaning the vents and fan blades with a soft brush and rubber PC bladder/blower, (never use vacuum cleaners, liquids or compressed air) if the vibration is still apparent, you may have a busted fan bearing, then replace the fan(s).

    For a 6 years old laptop if you haven't cleaned and put new paste to the gpu/cpu then you must have allot of dirt and felt built up inside the thermal module and fan(s), or the fan(s) could be damaged also and might need changing as this laptop has either a 1x fan and thermal module (Acer part #: 23.Q2CN2.001) for cpu/gpu with the NVidia GTX1050 gpu or a twin fan thermal module setup for the NVidia GTX1060 gpu, which you can't buy oem Acer fans as the whole module is sold together with the fans (see below) but you can get these fans on eBay or good electronics outlet. So, open your laptop up and check the internals and clean it out, if you can't do this yourself then take your AN515-52 laptop to a technician that can do all this for a minimal cost plus the cost a new fan(s). Good luck
