Ok, will do...but how do i know if thats the one thats failed...should i take a look at it when the computer is on?

yes a noob question.
 
The only fan your computer will tell you has failed is the CPU fan most likely, expisally in a dell

Yes you can have RPM sensors on other fans, but your PC doesnt care at all about them
 
lol.

well mate, Im not sure why the 90 degrees C your cpu will be under if thats the fan that died would make your fps so low, all I can say is your pc is lucky to be running at all without your cpu fan. I had a failure on here with my 2.8ghz system and it only just survived. Maybe thats why your framerate sucks. Get a fan. Get a coolermasters aero series, i love the turbine that comes with em!
 
this is odd, well my fps is back to normal...

aww...i dont need a cpu fan, its just a dell afterall
 
Your wrong you need a CPU fan, go buy one

Your FPS probolly went up because your fan started spinning

When your FPS drops that means yoru CPU is overheating enough to start running slower.
