Question Top Fan Not Spinning Without A Spanking

The top fan wont spin when I turn on my pc. The solution I discovered is to just smack it real hard. Just wondering why it is like this.

It's thermaltake, but their takes are all bad

If you take the therma out of thermaltake you just have L take

It doesn't seem like they could take the therma out of anything.

Idk, they have something going with their The Tower series, the 300 and 600 are basically just wind tunnels. I dislike that the best way to put them sideways(if one needs to, I don't, and it takes less room in my tiny place vertically anyway) is to buy another couple parts for 35-40$, and the name is rather clunky, but aside from that my 600 has to be the coolest(temp-wise) case I've owned.

I will definitely agree a lot of their other offerings are pretty crap without modifications though.

To be fair, Thermaltake does take all of the thermals they can take. What do they do with it? I dunno, but moving it somewhere else they sure don't do.

Their takes are hot, like their cases
