Internal Cooling Fan Assembly
The XPS 13 utilizes high-RPM ultra-thin fans that are prone to bearing wear and dust-induced imbalance. Replacing the fan assembly eliminates mechanical grinding and restores the aerodynamic profile of the blades, reducing the noise caused by turbulence and friction.

High-Performance Thermal Interface Material
Loud fan noise is often a symptom of the fan running at max duty cycle to compensate for poor heat transfer. Fresh thermal paste ensures the CPU can dissipate heat efficiently into the heatsink, allowing the PWM controller to maintain lower, quieter fan speeds.

System BIOS Firmware Update
As noted in the Spiceworks community data, Dell laptops can get stuck in Manufacturing Mode or have aggressive fan curves in outdated BIOS versions. Updating the firmware or clearing the system event logs can recalibrate the thermal management sensors and quiet the fan.
