A friend of mine has a GT 610, he doesn't use it to game very much but still he has been getting some graphical bugs lately. We found out the card is overheating up to like 100° C, even after changing thermal paste, upon further inspection it looks like the fan on it is giving up.
So we came up with a little project and with the help of a 3d printer we adapted a CPU cooler to it, it runs cool but we've been using the Chassis fan connector to run the Cooler fan on the new heatsink.
In order to free that connector we can either use a molex from the PSU or the connector for the old, smaller fan on the card itself, it would be nice since we would get PWM control. Do you think the card will be able to deliver enough power??
