I just purchased a used ATI Radeon 9800 Pro AGP video card and the fan is rediculously loud. It's so loud that I thought my power supply had blown and for some reason the fan started going out of control, or something.
Also, the fan noise is constant (eg. it doesn't start/stop or anything like that)
Anyways, can I do anything to fix this? The fan doesn't sound broken and it's not touching any wires so I guess the fan itself is just a super loud fan.
Can I buy a cheap replacement fan or just disconnect it completely? If I can buy a replacement, what size I do need to buy and what other parts do I need?
Thanks for any help!
