CPU fan bearings dry or collapsed, you will need to just touch the centre of the fan and if the noise disapears it needs replacing.
Could be other things, PSU or case fan, CDrom disk in drive, a wire or something catching a fan .
Martin Replying helps further our knowledge, without comment leaves us wondering.

Before replacing the fan try putting some sewing machine oil. Remove the sticker on the fan and normaly there is a place to put oil there.

Well..... Owning and operating a computer repair facility, I have found with fans, that if you soak them in rubbing alcohol for a while, let them dry out, then oil them, you can save a lot of fans.
