I once had a 5800XT which had a fan which didn't work at all. Strange thing is, the card worked fine. It even overclocked and ran nicely.

It did get exceptionally hot though, so it must have been heading for an early grave. Got it swapped when I discovered the fault ;)

Now I've got a newer PC, it makes hardly any noise. I can barely hear that it's on sometimes. I'm stil considering getting a Zalman CPU cooler, to get things even quieter.
