Fan is knacked, wat2do

[Bloxxed]

Last night I noticed that my computer was EXTREMELY hot, you could not even touch the surface, you'd get burnt, I came home today and noticed that only my processor, and GPU fan is working, but the fan that extracts the hot air out is totally buggered.

My question is

How long will it take until my whole computer fries?

say goodbye to your computer. it will probably take 2 hours for it to go poop

[Bloxxed]

Seriously? Is there anything I can do to save it?

manually rip out the fan

[johnnyboy]

get new fan
turn off computer
replace fan
success

and not in that order

[Kearn]

dont put too much load on anything

set the case slowly on its side and take the cover off

Never mind, got a new replacement Fan from a old computer, everything works now.

No more explosive computer.
