I've discovered just now that the Northbridge fan on my Abit NF7-S 2.0 is the little bugger that's making a lot of noise. I think it's either on it's way out or needs oiling.
Anyway my question is, would it damage the motherboard/northbridge if I ran it without the fan plugged in, but still attached to the chip?
I'm running a 2400+ at 2700+ and the FSB is 333MHz, so it's not exactly being pushed hard.
THanks.
