Ok, it is definitely the power supply fan as it is near the cord. Well, do I really need to get a can of compressed air to clean it? Because: a) it seems pretty far spaced from everything else and dust can't easily get there, and if it gets, it's easily spotted, b) the computer is pretty new so it SEEMS clean inside, I "kinda" (:P) checked it and c) it SEEMS pretty easily cleanable with a handkerchief (?). What should I do?

BTW: you might want to take note that the noise that the fan is making is just loud, i.e. seems to be spinning faster, not any screeching noise or anything.

And lastly I'm sorry if I 'm becoming annoying but can you please explain me how the dust (which seems to be little in quantity) can affect the process of the fan and the process of the sixengine? And something else , can you suggest me any other programs for giving me readings about my computer? I wanna test them all, and compare readings, I think this is a better way to do it. Unless if every program gets its readings from the BIOS in which case it would not be needed as they would all be the same.

Thanks for the help and I beg you to keep them coming, I really want to sort this out and get something out of it, i.e. knowledge.
