When the computer first starts up and the fans are being spun up for the first time in a while, they make a horrible rattling noise and then mostly go away after several minutes

Amazing colors, excellent patterns and low noise, just awesome when it works

had 3 come with my computer case and within a little less than 12 months the fans start to get louder and make a rattle vibrating noise
