Hi,
I have suffered from faulty ram (which was dealt with very well by pc specialist) and have, thanks to the default package size, had to replace 8 stick of ram.
In a previous post i highlighted problems i have with the clips that hold the fan on the heat sink over the CPU. To install one of the sticks the fan needed to be removed and then replaced which i had a lot of difficulty doing! It all seemed to eventually click into place but I'm not convinced its working. I think i may have unplugged it by accident in my attempt to fit it back on. I think this because i have a fan indicator on the front showing one less fan, but its a NXZT Phantom case so graphically represents which ones which and i cant tell/remember which ones were lit up before.
So my basic question is can I/ how can I check that it is working? is it best to just open it up and turn it on? Should it always spin or only when its heating up? That may sound like a rediculous question but i want to be extra careful because i cant really afford to replace anything.
Thanks for any contributions!
