ummmm. Have you considered buying a new cooling fan? There is a alternative though, immerse the whole computer in mineral oil. effective and it LOOKS AWESOME!

You can do away with all fans. However if you generate a LOT of heat you may need to cool the oil. However the volume of oil vs thermal load from the computer makes me think that the oil would not require cooling. Unless you wanted too that is.

Ok, that is pretty cool. But maybe a little impractical for the fix that Scab is looking for.

I'd go with the replace the fan option. I'd guess you'd have to find one online. Other option is to upgrade your video card.

Or for the super easy and cheap way to fix it. Open the case and point a window fan at the unit.

i've got a window fan on it for now but i guess i'll need to replace it pretty soon bleh

let me know if it keeps the temp in check.

you will def need a new fan...many are universal but check the pin connector, otherwise you will have to splice the wires.

all else fails you can strap a case fan to it like I did on my vid card way back when lol.

win.
