Cooling Fan

I noticed my laptop’s cooling fan wasn’t blowing air out of the system as it should, so I disassembled it. I found that it was actually pushing hot air back inside. The fan has a small opening that lets air leak through, and I’m looking for a suitable material to seal this opening. I thought...

I have an electric fireplace that occasionally shuts off due to overheating sensors. I'm considering installing a PC cooling fan to keep these sensors cool and prevent the fireplace from auto-shutting off. Is this a viable solution? If so, what specific factors should I consider regarding the...

Hi, i have a this old computer system for over a decade now though it was just sitting there collecting dust in my store room for like past 5-6 years. Today i finally decided to take it apart to see what's inside it (it doesn't turn on). i have removed everything very carefully except I can't...

Hello Members, What could be the reason that after 2 days of use my darkflash CPU Cooler fans start to wobble when using linux OS. When I switch to windows and play csgo they don't wobble anymore. What could be causing this? The thing to note here is that the wobbling started after 2 days.

I need to replace the fans in my electric food & beverage cooler. They are getting quite noisy, and it's a nuisance when sleeping on the boat. Need something that moves as much air as possible, but more importantly, they need to be whisper quiet. Supply is plain DC 12V. No motor controllers...

Connectors and motherboard socket Hi, I've just bought a new case, the Antec NX360 which comes with 3 aRGB fans at the front. They're daisy-chained and meant to connect to the motherboard, however the only connectors (other than the aRGB - which I've plugged into the rainbow1 port) are SATA...

I don‘t know much about internet forums and such so I hope it’s okay to ask this here: My current computer is from 2008 so I have been building a custom PC over the last year or so. The motherboard is an ASUS M5A78L-M, and the CPU is an AMD Athlon II (Quad-Core; 3GHz). The motherboard has a...

Hi, I have a lenovo t410s and I was doing a project of taking it apart from its chassis and making it into a silent media PC when I accidentally shorted out the laptop fan port's pins for a split second (I think that is what happened but I don't know 100% since I was looking away). Now...

Hey guys I just built my first pc again after approximately 10 years of using laptops. I have a question related to the placement of my GPU. I placed my GPU (ASUS AMD ROG Strix RX570 OC Edition 4GB GDDR5) in the second GPU slot, I did this because I needed the space near the first slot for...

I would like to upgrade my computer because my current one isn't working that well. I was thinking about different components that I could get but I am having a really hard time because I don't know what motherboard to buy: I am currently using an RX 480 (4gb) and I would like to keep that...

Hey all I was wondering if any other dell optiplex 9010 DT variant OWNER thought it was weird that the 9010 DT only has one other fan, I was also wondering if it is possible to mount a second fan to the side of the case where the "vents" are to pull cold air in and turn the other one into an...

I assembled a new PC recently and the CPU cabinet case came with a 120mm fan initially. Everything was working fine but then within a week or two it started making noise on starting up the PC. The noise sustains for a few seconds (15-30) and then everything goes to normal. Changed power plan and...

Okay, so earlier today I built my first computer with my friends, it was relatively easy, with not much trouble building the PC at all. Once connecting the PC to my monitor and connecting all the peripherals and cables etc etc, my PC failed to boot. It started off booting windows 7 for a couple...

So I just came up with a great idea I might take into consideration when I am older. Would it be possible to have computer components sealed behind a sort of glass frame that would go on the wall? For example, the motherboard would be in one glass frame, and then the HDD in another, PSU, etc...
