waxen hollow Any wires caught in the fan blades?

I don’t think so

#

I’ll check

#

Again

#

Any other tips?

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:26 PM

#

I'm not convinced, I think there is a wire

#

What did you do to clean it?

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

maiden breach What did you do to clean it?

Microfiber cloth

#

And also yeah there’s no wires in the blades

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:29 PM

#

You sure it's that fan?

#

Maybe another one

#

Nah it's that rear fan now looking at it

#

It looks a bit wobbly

#

Turn it off and press the middle bit gently

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:30 PM

#

maiden breach Turn it off and press the middle bit gently

Okay I pressed against it gently

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:31 PM

#

Anything unusual?

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:31 PM

#

maiden breach Anything unusual?

I push back the middle bit on the other fans and they don’t feel wonky but the one I have issues with does

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

It does actually look wonky

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

Maybe it’s an issue with a bearing in the fan?

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

Yeah possibly

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

Does that mean I should replace the fan

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

Yes

#

Any 120mm fan will work, if you want the same one I would ask cyberpower

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:33 PM

#

Alright. Thanks for the help.

I'm assuming it's out of warranty since the EVGA GPU is older than 2 years now isn't it?

Just to double check you are based in Canada/USA or UK etc?

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:35 PM

#

Canada

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:35 PM

#

This is the wrong server then

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:35 PM

#

maiden breach This is the wrong server then

Could you point me in the right server?

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:36 PM

#

#

Different company over here

CYBERPOWERPC US/CA Discord Server

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:36 PM

#

Ok thank you

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:36 PM

#

No problem!

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:36 PM

#

Btw before I go Do you have a good video I could go to on how to replace the fan?

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:37 PM

#

Depends what fan you have, but it's 4 screws in the back, and a 4/3 pin for fan power and LEDs are different for all fans

#

Corsair Lian Li and those fans are all different, you can ask for help with the support team over there

echo granite Mar 31, 2024, 11:39 PM

#

Okay thanks

maiden breach Mar 31, 2024, 11:41 PM
