Just a fan..

Two months ago, I bought a new AGP graphic card for my aged desktop (A Pentium 3-kinda antique la.. onli selling for Rm300 bucks in low yat) cause the old one had failed. So, I got the new card from this particular shop from Low yat.. if u wanna know the name of the shop, let me know.. i'll be glad to let u know the name and location so that you'll never buy anythin from there..

After two months, I heard a strange noise from my pc.. it's like a fan which not running smoothly. Very irritating sound.. so after much investigation and I found out the cause of it. It's actually the fan on the new graphic card. An one inch fan not functioning tat well. It's very important to cool the graphic card.. At first i tot it was the pc chassis cooling fan.. but it's not..ahah.. and i bought a new one somemore..

So i brought it back to the shop where I got it from.. I passed it to one of the workers there. He didnt know what to do.. he asked his boss. The boss happily said to me," Hey, the fan spoil d no warranty..if u wanna try, I'll bring it back to the supplier.. just that U Wont Be Able to Use Ur Pc for A Month..but not confirmed ok? " and he continued," I think u should modify abit, use ur brains.. screw a larger fan on the graphic card urself but It'll Void The Warranty, Just like that.. very easy..everybody also do like that.."

I was shocked..initially.. but was actually prepared that they'll give this kinda of excuses la.. so the boss showed me a fan n taught me how to VOID the warranty by tampering the graphic card's fan n the heat sink..use screws to screw the bigger fan onto the heat sink n he emphasised on.. no warranty for the fan laa.. when it's clearly a manufacturing defect..

But wat can i do? if i leave it for them to check with their supplier tat'll take a month? or maybe months? n i have to go back to the shop again plus won't be able to use my pc..

So I went next door which is Sri Computer( U can get any pc-related products there-very very complete..)to get a larger fan i think it's 5 inches with blue LED lights when turned on. I got the fan at Sri Computer even though I knew that the previous shop was selling too..pissed at them la..

Haha.. I went back home, used some tape n taped the larger fan onto the graphic card without tampering with it at all.. n it worked beautifully.. although i would prefer to have the graphic card's fan replaced.. but what to do? anywayz.. problem solved!I'm able to use the pc again..

So.. anybody interested to know the name n location of the shop which sold me the graphic card, just let me know.. alright..

Will show u all the upgrade later.. dunno why cannot upload the photo.. funny...
