PSA - Don't try to quiet a noisy PSU by jamming a screwdriver into the fan.

yea no kidding, pen is softer..you don't want to damage the blades. and get a decent psu..their fans fail less often. cheap psu's..heh the rattling fan thing is so so common.

I've actually done that..well, kinda the opposite. I banged on the PSU with the handle side of a screwdriver.

Soon enough nothing in my room that was electronic didn't work anymore. That thing was giving out radiation or something.

Ive got a better one, dont plug in a 30a adapter into a 15a cable modem... smoke and a nice smell.... no lights though.

My wife liked my deodorant....

I didn't even have to do that, Antec True 550 died on Monday of it's own will. No screwdrivers necessary.
