I have a Leadtek 6600GT which has developed a fan bearing noise. Searches show that this is not an unusual problem. I dont know whether to RMA the card or just replace the fan with a different make. Does anyone have any suggestions please?
Hi Tumbleweed, I did take it out and clean it and its now cleaner than squeaky clean. Still got the hum though. What concerns me is that I have seen reports of this occurence happening before and if I RMA it the whole business could happen again in a few months time. One owner reported that his fan went after only 1 month.
If Leadtek are using an improved fan for their cards now well thats fine, but if not I might as well invest a few dollars in something better.
