Hi All,

Had a shuttle for years now and pretty happy with it. Been thinking it's abit sluggish lately.

Have noticed that the shuttle is very hot though.

Taken the lid off and no fans are spinning, also put a new gfx card in recently in a big metal case with fans, that's hot and no fans spinning either?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Martin

Check they're not clogged up with dust? Checked the fan connections to the PSU?

I'm not sure how tricky they are to replace, but hopefully if they're dead it's a case of simply putting some new ones in.

I'd be a bit apprehensive if they weren't working though - might be an idea to keep a close idea on CPU/GPU temps.
 
GFX is a leadtek A300TD gforce fx8500 and there's a 2.6 Celeron in there.

edit: Removed the gfx, machine is cool to the touch now. Will probably replace card with something that doesn't have a power connector. Any recommendations, nothing flash?
