Fan death common

It seems from the reviews that I read that the fan has bad bearings- I did not heed this, and decided to buy it regardless. Well needless to say it died- started whining then wouldn’t boot to BIOS. I unplugged the fan and tapped a case fan to the card and it works again! So just be warned about the standard fan- there is a great chance it will go out. FYI, video card fan lasted for less than a month for me, but I threw out the packaging- hence no return, besides I have a workaround!

Update (2/6/2012): I also found some auctions for this item here.

This is an awesome card. I was a little worried because tigerdirect vlog Rated this as a basic card. It’s not basic.
