Hi everyone. I recently discovered that some piece of plastic was stopping my psu fan from spinning. I have no idea since when. Could've been from months to even years and I can't afford a new psu currently. I just pulled the plastic and it started spinning right back up. I never noticed any signs of change the computer always ran perfect.

My question is. Is this psu still safe to use. Did the heat damage it and it's just destined to fry everything or am I fine?

Thanks
