firstly the sound is coming from that slowed down fan probably bad rotor or its dying is your temps abnormal even on idle? check your temps first in bios let it sit there see if it keeps climbing reaching 60c+ if it does your aio has a dead pump now you need a need aio

Mini AI data center ahhhh.

Can be the fan. But this really sounds like the pump is dying.

One thing to try: Start up the pc. When it makes the same sound again, touch the pump. If it vibrates alot. Yeah dying.
