I was going to replace the fan, but after multiple crashes things are acting weird, even after it’s had hours to cool down.

BTW, by “crash”, I mean my computer is still fine, but the screen is black, so obviously I can’t do anything.

FWIW, I’m measuring this fan in the new one so when it happens again, I can do exactly that. They are cheap at amazon.

BTW, the new card is a little more signifcant than the old one. I don’t ever spend more than $80 on a video card these days. I believe this one is a 1030. Twice as much ram as the old one but still under $70. It’s not gonna break the bank.
