I never had any luck with YL. I won't ever waste money on them again. They were cheap to get , but there are much better fans to be had for my $$.

The only problems I've had with them is they see to be finger magnets. Especially when spinning.

They seem to stop spinning. I had to take apart, clean and lube them to keep them going for a few more days.

I've only had an issue with one YL fan I own out of at least 12 of them. One developed an annoying tick while spinning other then that they are all still up and running for 2 years straight.

I have had several YL running for years... no issues here.

Luckily I had just started the PC and it shut right back down.

I switched the CPU over to the second loop and all seems well.

Join the club Devlos. I'm certain the majority of us here have made a blood sacrifice to the Computer gods at some point. I know I have

Delidded 6400+ is history.
Can you tell?

 

[Blaylock]

Doh. Is it the upper right chip that's fried or the lower left Gouge missing from the pcb?

 

[Mr.Scott]

It's actually not a gouge. It's a hot spot. PCB is melted, that and the blown out cap. It saw a tough life between me and Jon.
