How to repair your noisy CPU, video card, computer fan at home

What if the fan is loose, how to tighten

[maximochkaa]

You can buy a new fan - (just fan) on eBay auction,

Buy a good known brand

and attach it even with strips - it will be good to cool your CPU , VGA , case with no sound.

After taking off heat-sink/fan from board, you gotta replace thermal paste!!!!!

[MrProductions96]

@seedzx Incorrect for many Processor fans. There are many processor fans that have a separate fan part, the bit that spins. Then if you have that, you can take that off as an individual part, then there is no need to replace the thermal paste.

@MrProductions96 not the case here though

[polerbear1000]

can you help me mine as has screws that are attached to the fan and stick at the bottom of the video card and I can't get it out

[lightorama]

FRURMELLL is right. you need to replace the thermal paste before you put it back together. overheating can occur if you don't

[FRURMELLL]

You're doing it wrong, you need to replace the thermal paste also. It will have a lower temperature, so the fan doesn't need to spin that fast.
