Hello, So after installing a new motherboard and CPU and booting fine I then cut a ziptie and accidentally put my hand in the fan and a whole piece broke off, I am unable to send to ASUS as I dont have the serial code as i purchased a custom prebuild from Dinopc and my warranty is now over, can someone please help with what to do concerning buying a replacment fan or a repair shop located in the South East Uk thanks

You have a couple options:

Run it normally

Disable the fan some way, unplugging or cutting

Swap the cooler

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
