My 120 mm case fan, a Scythe S-FLEX SFF21F rarely does not turn on when I turn on the computer. I'll find out about it because SpeedFan's temps are 10-20 C higher than they usually are. Anyway, I can spin the fan a little and it'll start up every time.
Now, I can try another fan and try another power connector (and I will), but the diagnosis is made difficult by the fact that the problem doesn't occur often. So, from your personal experience, what would be the most likely culprit, the fan, the motherboard (3-pin connector), or something related to the case? Anybody have similar issues with this particular fan?
