If the fan looks and sounds like it always has, it should be fine. If it starts to click or vibrate your video card, it may be spinning uneven and is probably damaged.


DON'T MESS WITH HARDWARE WHILE COMPUTER IS RUNNING.

If the fan is still spinning then chances are it's ok. I hit my finger on an old school Thermaltake Dragon orb a long time ago, made me bleed. That thing was a monster @ 7000+rpm lol... it still worked fine though.

Sucks hitting your fingers on fans doesn't it?

EDIT: I mess with my hardware when the computer is running too :D but I don't install anything, I'm just moving things around or whatnot. I know it's stupid but meh.
