RE: Broke my CPU fan :(
just ask your computer store for a mid range one for that processer. if you are unsure of hwo to instal it i would highly recomend that you get them to put it in or somone with experiance, because its very easy to cook your cpu. and i would be careful using it with a crippled fan too..

They're easy to install.

Also, it's unlikely he'll cook his cpu, the pc will just shut off when it gets too hot.

Not always vax it depends on how old his system is, some old motherboard models dont shut off when the cpu gets hot, thats why some people fry there cpu. hopefully that isnt the case for jimbo here.

Yeah also fans are pretty easy to install he shouldnt have a problem. :P

I know, but I'm pretty sure Jimbo has a newer PC(By which I mean I think I remember him stating he had a relatively new PC at one point or another, might've even been a thread about buying a new one but i cba to look) :P
