Hey everyone!
Not long a go I began having problems with overheating in my Gaming rig and resulted in me having to have the case open and a house fan inside the case to cool it, which actually did a really good job to be fair.
Then last week I very stupidly put my hand inside the case, very uncautiously I ended up putting my finger in the CPU fan, the computer started making weird noises so i instantly turned the computer off. Since then I've still been using the computer but the noise is unbearable. Everything else is fine on the computer and the processor isn't damaged at all however the fan has a blade missing and seems to be making a vibrating sound which is incredibly loud.
I'm not really sure what to do now, I don't know how to stop the fan making noises and I'm not sure if I need another one or if the problem is something else. I've tried tightening everything up but the noise continues. If anyone has any advice on what to do or a good replacement CPU fan then please reply.
P.S. The processor is AM3+ socket 4.2GHz overclocked to 4.6GHz.
Thank you for your time!
