hi VC. i hope everyone is doing good. i am having a problem with my GPU's fan, its not spinning. my using it right now probably is not helping it but i have been asking everywhere for help. its a radeon hd 6870. i have tried to open it to oil up the bearings suppossedly but it did not have a opening for it. if anyone knows a fix or a temporary one even i would appreciate it. thanks guys and gals.

*i hope this is the right thread for this post. my apologies if it is not & please let me know where i could post it in. thank you
