VX450W always Loud !

Hi !

 

2 weeks ago I bought a new VX450W. I installed into my system and worked perfectly, very low noise ! I was very happy. :sunglasse

Only a few very short times the fan sped up a bit during gaming, afterwards getting back to normal low noise levels. So, nothing to be worried about, normal behaviour.

 

Now since a few days, when I cold-boot my PC, the fan in the VX450W, is at MAX noise level ! :eek: Always ! And stays that way after boot up... so it means I wasn't even gaming...WinXP is not even started. When XP is started it doesn't change, it stays max noise level.:(:

 

I was wondering what it could be, like if it was too warm in my office, but it's not, in fact, since I got the VX450W, I haven't changed anything in my PC setup nor home setup.

 

Any idea what this could be ? Maybe I need to RMA it.

 

Best regards

Rene
