Did a silly thing today. The bearing on the Blue Orb I've got cooling the GPU on my GF2U video card is on the way out and is very noisy.. I tap it every now and then in an attempt to get it to shut up, sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. Tapped it today, perhaps a little too firmly, there was a loudish bang and then silence. Boy, that worked well, I thought.. until I saw it'd snapped a fan blade off which was jamming it and stopping it spinning. Certainly made it quieter, shame the card won't be too happy without a fan on it.. back with the retail cooler for now. :)
