Odd Motor Sound

Something on my computer has been making an odd cycling sound. By something, I mean a fan and not a harddrive. It's easy to monitor harddrives temps. I've got a program that does that. It's easy to monitor CPU and motherboard temps, but I've not been checking them. It's harder to monitor GPU and power supply temps. For various reasons, I'm thinking it's the GPU fan. I took the card out and blew it the dust out of it. I looked at the fan, which sits on top of quite a bit of impressive fins and piping, with an eye on replacing it. It's already mumble generations old, and replacing the whole card may be a better option. If it isn't the GPU, it's either the CPU or power supply fan.
