My father has an old all-in-one HP that makes a lot of noise. What options are there to fix it or make it quieter? The CPU seems to be fine but still noisy. If you replace it with a new one, could that help? Also, the motherboard is AAHD3-NK (Angelino2-UB) and the A6-3620 chipset might work better with a quieter system.

Using new thermal paste and a tool such as SpeedFan can be an excellent beginning.

Remove the old components, apply fresh thermal paste, and swap out the fan. It’s quite simple to do. Make sure to detach the Wi-Fi dongle before removing the back cover, otherwise it might get damaged.
