nickster Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 My PC is 2 years old. Is there a way to check how many hours my PC has been in use? My fan is loud when it's at full throttle, and may replace it before it goes out. I have seen a figure of 15,000 hours lifetime expectancy, so i'm not near that. Thank you.

doug Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 My numbers say that left on 24/7 = 17,520. So it could be getting near end of life. The 15,000 may be an optimistic estimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andsome Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 If the fan is noisy say goodbye and replace it, they are cheap enough. :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
