    Question Can I still use my gpu with one fan not working

    My gpu is gtx 660 and one of the fans is now bad and not spinning. Can I still use it? Yes I do play games mostly. Based on the situation, I think this fan is not spinning for a long time and I just only knew it recently. And I dont recall my gpu shutting down.

    Will Threadripper 2 support AVX-512 and perform at least as well as the 7900X's?

    Hello, I read that although the TR supports AVX-2, it does not perform as well as INTEL's because of the way AMD implemented it. How likely will Threadripper 2 supports AVX-512 that performs at least as well as the AVX-512 in the current i9-7900X in tasks that benefit from AVX-512?
