    I like to think you bought the fan specifically to make this joke. Which makes it an expensive-ish joke that I appreciate.

      I bought it because it was $10 and I needed something to cool my Asus router that has been overheating lol. But the name Beskar definitely got my attention. Beskar means quality

        You should probably open it up and actually fix the problem, rather than this band aid solution. It probably just needs new thermal paste on the heatsink(s). (Or needs heatsinks added in the first place.)

          Yes, this is a stop gap til I can do my research :D Sounds like I’ll have to put in an additional couple thermal pads to bridge the gap to heatsink as they don’t actually touch, but need to read more about it.
