I have one noisy fan appears to be sticking slightly on the above Albatron Card.

Would a small dose of something like CRC (with power off :eek: ) assist?

I have cleaned dust etc from board.

535436 2007-03-24 04:28:00 Maybe a Electrical Lubricant Check out Dick Smith website. However I would get further advice as you don't want to fry your card radium (8645)
535437 2007-03-24 04:48:00 Use something with a silicon base for a lubricant. Oil based things attract dust.

They are excellent coolers, silent, efficient and not very expensive.

Cheers
