Whoa, it's me!

If you were wondering where I have been, my desktop has experienced some serious hardware issues. Only 1 of my 3 fans runs and it runs at 50%. This causes my graphics card to seriously overheat if I try to play minecraft (after about 30 mins of gameplay, the temperature rises to about 110 degrees Celsius [that's 230 degrees Fahrenheit!]). Now, this is obviously above the boiling point of water, which is not good. The CPU will then automatically shut down to save itself from serious hardward damage; this means it is difficult for me to do anything in minecraft.

Its pritty straight forward, just buy one and plug it in.
If said fan is ATTACHED to the video card directly or the CPU, then that is actualy a heat sink fan and it will be more then the chump change case fans cost.

lol okay idea, if said fans are too expensive, then attach tnt to one end of the computer and light it, than continue to get as far from your house as possible. At which point your fans will decide to work and you will be like fuck, it started working and now i dont have a house.
