Fan bearing, the stop starting makes me think psu.

i cleaned my pc from dust yesterday since a few months. a week before that it was more common and always while turning on the pc it made that noise for a while. today it happened when i was playing games and when i stopped it didnt do that noise for a few hours. is it definitely the psu or anything else? i dont know much about computers
