Last night i forgot my pc open cause i fell asleep, it went in standby mode and today when i opened it, it started to make a really loud noise and i turned it down and waited for an hour or so.
After that, i started it and it shown the error "Overclocking failed" and press F1 to run setup, i pressed F1 it took me to the BIOS and after that i pressed exit&save and it started, but unfortunately that loud noise was still here and my pc started to heat up really bad. I looked up the CPU temperature in BIOS and it was 70 C, i am actually worried, what can i do?
 
Solution
That loud noise is likely your CPU cooler. The fan is rubbing on something as it spins, or maybe it's just failing. Or it could be a pump issue if you have a liquid cooler.
