PC in the shitter

So my pc has been making annoying noise for a few days now so i opened it up to see whats going on and turned out to be the cpu fan. Of course i had to dick around with it and ended up breaking off one of the blades making the sound much louder. I decided to play a match of rocket league and hope for the best hoping to see if it was just a sound or if it would effect the computer and the sound got EXTREMLY loud and then crashed with a colorful lines screen. So i rebooted it and once it got to the screen that says gigabyte (my mobo) i shut it down completly cause i wasnt taking any chances. So ill have to get a new heatsink either way but wanted to come on here looking for any input on the matter that i can get to see if maybe its more than just that

The vibrations could have damaged the pins.

Replace the cpu fan/heatsink and hope for the best.

broke off a fan blade and continues using it?

the vibration can do so many bad things to your pc though

you can always try swapping the cpu heatsink first and see how it goes

Yeah im just that much of a savage that i use broken fans. Was thinking the same thing about the pins being fucked and hopefully thats not the case im hoping it overheated because the fans so messed up but it was only on for 7 or 8 minutes could it have over heated that quickly?

when gaming yes, especially with no proper cooling to dissipate the heat. When my H220 pump went out on me it took me only about 3 minutes to reach that point on my i5 2500k 3 years ago.
