This is what my card looks like
Getting it RMA is out of the question as its two years old, and I bought it from another person.
And The fan is having problems, and when I turn it with my hands I can feel a resistance, or a tug.
I went out and bought sewing machine oil, as I heard that works better then olive oil as they break down
eventually, though I did put it in one of my cheap fans, not a graphic card fan, but a $6 computer fan.
Ironically its been spinning and working for the last 4 months, and it spins extremely smoothly,
with no problems, and when I push the blade from turned off, it moves very smoothly, where before
it was hard to push.
Though eventually it will break down and destroy this fan supposedly.
Now I ask, where do I place the sewing machine oil? On top of the fan? Or I open up the card,
and turn it the other way, and put it from the other side?
I am not a computer idiot or anything, I have done some basic modding such as modding a 6950 card
with a wire from VCC to HDD in a controller on the card, and hacking it for more shaders.
I know basic computer stuff, but not as much as about the fan.
So I like some advice before I proceed ahead.
And one thing I like to say is I know enough about computers to know how truly little I know about them.
Best regards
