    My D900F graphics card fan is making strange noice

    It is like a scratchy sound and it is a bit loud

    Then after a while it goes away ... now the sound is no longer there

    I am not sure if anything is wrong with the fan or not

    I have checked by pressing Fn+1 and all the fans are working

    I have checked my temperatures for CPU+GFX+ACPI and they are all at their normal temps

    What software can I use to check the fan speed of the D900F ?

    Should I replace it ?

    If you turn the D900F on its back its the fan that is to the most right

    May I please kindly inquire if the Fan that is to the most right at the bottom of the D900F

    is this right most fan the same exact fan as the middle fan of the D900F ?

    When I open the D900F up the right most fan and the middle fan ... the look exactly identicle are these two fans exactly the same ?

    Where can I get spare parts ?

    I bought it from XoticPC over a year ago .

    How much is 1 item of this Fan ?

    Please advice

    :confused:

    hi
    have you cleaned out your fans lately with compressed air. its recommended on doing this every 3-6 months as dust clogs up and can be the cause for odd noises. normaly the temps go up as well so this might not be the problem in your case.
    did you take out the extra warranty when you bought it. if so contact xoticpc tech support for advice.
