    I got a radeon x600, (go on laugh, its just a temporary replacement)and the problem is that the fan makes too much noise after I took it off the board to clean it. I think its ratteling or something, because when I sort of balance it with three magnets, the sound is gone. I need to know if i can super glue the magnets so that they dont fall off. Im afraid that the glue will melt, release fumes or do something else hazardous when the fan gets hot. Is it safe to use super glue on any parts of your pc?

    Superglue becomes a ploymer when set so it's like a plastic. It won't melt or give off fumes after this, as long as you don't set fire to it! The components in a pc would never get that hot, especially on the fan.
    I would use it no bother.
