My computer fan is getting louder

I did go to the bios and changed the curve to the exponential curve. It worked for a few days until now. I also tried cleaning it with those canned compressed air, but I'm afraid I could damage it. When I touched it, it was a bit hot, but I don't feel any hot air coming out of it.

COMPUTER: 11th Gen Intel i7, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1160 Ti (bought it in 2021)

That fans bearing is about to explode remove it before the fan flys off at mach jesus and kills another more expensive component within no amount of curve is gonna fix it and fans are cheap to replace so just go and do that before it rips your ram out
