[HW: How To] - Repair a GPU Fan

** Please read the entire description before doing any repair work **
so.... my fans failed... big time... and I decided to send my cards for RMA.. well... me being an idiot I've send my GPUs to the wrong address and one week later package came back... So I decided to try and repair the fans myself and I figured out that it's really not that hard to do so - hence this video.

GPU I'm repairing in this video is Gigabyte RX 470G1 Gaming 4GB

**Do not apply brute force when removing the fan - wiggle it because base (bottom) plastic will break :/

*** WARNING, some fans have plastic that you remove (underneath a fan sticker) and after you remove that you can safely remove the protection pin and clean the blades.
This is what it looks like: http://i-vlad.com/utilities/Protectiv...
ALWAYS CHECK FOR IF THE FAN HAS THAT TYPE OF PIN!

IF YOU DECIDE TO ATTEMPT THIS REPAIR  - YOU ARE DOING IT AT YOUR OWN RISK - YOU MIGHT END UP BREAKING SOMETHING :(

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask :)

if you find this useful, you are rich as F**K and want to pay me a beer:
