PC Fan change on Dell Dimension
Harry Potter:
My last PC which lasted for 5 years didn't have anywhere near that much crap on the vents. Just some dust.
It looks like he was growing vegetables in that case.

it might be on a hinge
dell has decent cases, but they rivet everything and make replacing parts quite difficult.

Maybe in the past, but not in the past few years. I really love the 8400s-those things are a dream to work on. The GX2x0 series is nice, too, though a bit smaller so cables tend to be more of a PITA.
Vigo:
screw getting a new fan, rip the whole thing out with a saw, and make an ionic cooling system. ;D

Just leave it outside. It's 30 degrees out there.

Yea the reason it looks so nasty...This thing was in a house fire at my dads like 5 years ago!! Still runs ok but is damn noisy.
Tried scrubbing the smoke stains off of it and it still looks like someone crapped it up!! Oh well the thing still runs and IT RUNS MAME!!
PS: Thanks for all of the help...DANG!! My kid wouldn't even let me finish trying to quiet the thing down the other day and he has it back in action so maybe I should make him read this post and do the work himself!!
