I have a bfg fx5600 that has eaten it's 2nd fan in 3 months. Wondering if there is an aftermarket fan or cooler that anyone has used or can suggest. I could rma it again, but just as cheap to find something else. Any info is greatly apreciated as the kids want to play Bob the Builder on their computer again. Thanks

Well, noone replied here becuase this forum is closed :(, but I can tell you that if you lay your computer down and put a case fan which you screwed out in front of the fan which stopped it might be a temporary solution. You can also try and lower core speed in the Nvidia driver software.
I can't really recommend any fan.

Got a nice overclocked overvolted system to keep you warm at night? That's great. Guess I'll have to settle for a woman...
