Why was it uneconomic, was the fan a rediculous price and of low quality, usually the norm with profit maximising labels? I forgot to put in the last post, you can also check the temperature via the bios if those same labels haven't reduced the bios to twaddle with a bios license they acquired and have maintained since the 1980s.
