01 Blazer Overheats & Becomes Noisy

For the past week I started to notice that my temperature guage is going up only when I turn the AC on. It goes a little past 1/2 way. It also starts to become noisy when I try to accelerate. Like the car is struggling to accelerate. It doesn't feel like it, but it becomes horribly noisy. ONLY ON ACCELERATION. When I turn the air off the temp guage drops back down and runs perfectly fine. 100degree days, and I need my air.

well running the a/c def increases the temp a little bit. maybe the fan clutch is sticking?

what kind of noise is it making?

the sound that i am hearing is as if the car is revving up. like the trans is slipping, but it isnt. again when the AC is turned of. I dont hear these sounds.
