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

Fire no, I dont think so. It could get a bit black in the tip that touches the heatsink (?)

It will probably overheat, yes despite the other 2 fans. Obviously depending on the use.

I'm really not savvy when it comes to GPU tools, can I maybe set a maximum temperature?

maybe there's a way to fix the fan itself?
