Hey /g/
so basically one of my GPU fans started making this weird noise like it was imbalanced or something and I put a toothpick through to prevent it from turning
that obviously solved the problem but my concerns are
-is the toothpick ever going to catch fire? its wood
-is the gpu going to overheat despite having 2 other working fans?
obviously I dont care about warranty else I would have returned the damn thing when it started making the noise
pc is working fine since yesterday
also if someone maybe knows how to software-disable that fan or something that would help too
>>54946775
buy new graphics card
/thread
>>54946775
describe the noise
>>54946775
pic related
just to reiterate: it has TWO other working fans
False alarm everybody. Motorola isn't actually doing anything worth while at all.

There seems to be a cult of thinkpads around here where it's impossible to get the right information. I was looking to buying a new one (I hate buying anything used) and whenever I think one is suitable for me I look around and find they have some issues. I was looking to buy the x1 carbon but I read it has headphone issues, screen flickering and other stuff. Is everyone a poorfag and just buys used thinkpads?. I have a lenovo Y580 and it's the worst laptop I have ever owned ( I know it's an ideapad but still).
>>54946692
bait
>>54946692
>poorfag and just buys used thinkpads?
The averrage /g/entoo men thinks that old thinkpads look way better than newer laptops.
Is a matter of personal tastes.
Also INTEL ME.
You can't get rid of intel ME on the new intel CPUs so getting anything newer than a Core2Duo is a NO-NO if you value your freedom.
Also I will never trust lenovo after all that malware shit.
How does /g/ manage their passwords? Use a password manager or remember all your passwords?
>>54946687
i'm covered
remember important ones
paper slip for less important ones

When the fuck will HDMI die off? they always seem to break, theres no "click" to know when its fully in, and they always break(i know i made that point before).
Anyone else have trouble with your HDMI?
>>54946663
When the freetard alternative catches up, which will be never as always.
>>54946663
I've been using the same HDMI chord for 5 years now, and I don't treat it well, in fact, my cat brutalize it everytime. Tell, what the fuck is wrong with you?
>>54946663
Maybe you'd like to use SCART?
FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING CUNTS.
>>54946606
