I believe its one of the fans... when i open my computer it starts to buzz... i restart it a few time and this problem disappears... happens every day... any ideas?

I cleaned two of the fans on the tower and it still buzzes...

If it's a fan as you say. Fans do go bad, especially cheapos. Also the could be dirty & or need oiling (don't oil unless you're sure how).

umm i cleaned the video card fan doesnt seem to be the problem... seems to be my case's fans... i cleaned those fans out too but the fans seem to be shaking when its running therefore it buzzes since its hitting against the casing for the fan...
