ASUS CM 1730

New power supply(well its about 13 months old)

Im trying to figure out if I need a new processor fan maybe?

Just looking for advice before I start buying parts.
 
Solution
How old is it? Check for leaking / bulging capacitors on its motherboard. What brand and model (not just wattage) is the PSU?


Pc is 4 years old.

Psu is a Corsair gs800

Checked for leaks and/or bulging caps and didnt notice anything wrong.
 
Well upon further inspection the psu AND motherboard had bad capacitors.

I missed them the first time because I was expecting the caps to look worse than they did, but there are some that are definitely rounded at the top and not indented.

I already got a new psu and am searching for a new motherboard to order.

Much thanks for your help Onus.
