interestingly how it didn't just go but at maximum, what it's supposed to do, have you aligned the connector maybe it's shifting to the right?
You can in theory wire it manually if you won't see the botch job :)
the old cpu cooler from time to time sounds like it's ramping up for takeoff.  wish i had another fan i could slip in front of my graphics card until the replacement arrives.   i have it gimped on minimal graphics and it stays below 70 degrees so i guess thats ok for now.  my tracking says the slow boat from china left with my replacement fan today.  or perchance it's on a plane heading here via anchorage?  that's too much to hope for i guess... esp with free delivery.

A closer inspection reveals a potential cat chew toy and not a case fan connector.  Silly me.

And now perhaps theres a temp working solution until i get a replacement fan?  Some white duct tape redeemed the cats chew toy until a new connector can be had....  though a pack of five connectors and 15 crimping pins cost the same price a another fan....


And the case fan is over the hole where the missing gpu fan should go and zipp tied in place.  Not perfect but something to help.
