I have managed to break the CPU fan on Beastbits. Honestly, after all of the things I’ve done to it over the years, this has to be the most stupid, and painful. It has suffered from dramatic fan noise over the past few weeks, sadly caused by the fan on the ‘newly’ replaced power supply (it’s actually quite a while ago now).

Whilst I was looking for a way to lessen the noise, I moved the wires around the CPU fan, even though I know they had nothing to do with it, and managed to catch my finger in the CPU fan, shearing one of the blades on the fan, and leaving my finger with a nasty red blotch on the tip.

This means that the fan no longer works, and therefore Beastbits is out of action for now. And I have a poorly finger to attend to.
