Dell Inspiron N5110 making a strange buzzing sound

[TheEnthralled]

Hey everyone!

I bought this laptop yesterday, but there's a problem. There's some strange buzzing noise that i can hear from the central part of the laptop, beneath the keyboard. Sometimes it also squeaks for a short amount of time. I thought first that it's the GPU fan, but now I don't think it is, since the noise is kinda irregular and has short interruptions.

Configuration:
Intel Core i7 2630QM @ 2GHz
GeForce GT 525M, 1 GDDR5
6GB DDR3 RAM

Also, processor's temperature with onlz the browser (Chrome) with 5 tabs open is about 53 degrees Celsius. Is this normal?

Thanks!

I can't say about the noise, but my i3 N5110 runs about 50c with several tabs open.
This link may help.

Do you have a recording of the sound? I have used a couple new 15R, but none with the quad core and DGPU.

bro.. wat model of HDD u're using? CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World or Download Speccy 1.14.288 - FileHippo.com to check ur HDD version or RPM. u can use quietHDD to stop the buzzing sound. if no mistake is the HDD or call dell to change heat-sink.. FOC

hey bro
I have the same problem... but i tried to do something and i found the solution
go to Control Panel > IDT Audio Control Panel > Equalizer
then make your settings as default
then put the 500Hz at value -15 and click save

i hope that will solve your problem
BTW im sorry for my english =)
