I don't really think an average PC consumer or even a knowledgeable one would know that peeling a PC fan sticker reveals a cap to pour oil for lubrication or even know what kind to put in there. Heck, if someone told me to oil my fans before watching this video, I'd say they are playing with me. But hey, if it really is "common knowledge" as you say, I really must be doing something wrong with my life.@@gbbarn
@@GamerboyLoverPlzSubMe Well, I reckon you're just a bit young, that's it. Whenever u gotta oil up one of them noisy bearings just use some 3-in-one oil, that's every dad's old faithful. I use it for all sorts of stuff, like when a door's hinge is creakin or my land mower's actin up. Now unless your bearing gets hot, it ain't something 3-in-one can't fix.
As it is plastic, silicon oil should be very nice too, no ? I was also wondering, if a fan is loud while new, then I guess this wouldn’t fix that issue ? (Bought a new piece of hardware that might be loud, didn’t turn it on yet but that’s a common issue on this product apparently).
I don’t have experience with silicone oil but quite possibly. And for new equipment, no, adding additional oil shouldn’t change the noise characteristics of a new fan as the bearing itself and airflow pattern would remain the same

Wow, youtube recomended a relevant small channel for me?? Will be keeping an eye around here
I'm just so confused why this video isn't more popular. This can solve so much more pc fan issues that people have.
This is common knowledge.
@@gbbarnIt seems that it’s not

The fan brand is "F U" lmaoooo
3-in-1 works as well.
Save yourself an early grave and just tilt the whole PC on its front and access the fan from there.
You can’t, not unless you cut the steel shielding of the power supply out of the way.
hello am new.
For fans that were binding up, I would use WD40. The fans would last anywhere from 2 days to 2 years or more.
However, WD40 isn’t a lubricant. It’s alright to get them unstuck but it should be backed up with a proper oil or grease
Motor oil
I have done that to an inductive ac motor before. Better than nothing!
