when your PC fan starts clunking (AKA stopping, starting, then hitting or rubbing the casing or something like that) it pretty much means that its time for a new fan right?

They're cheap, though, something around 10 bucks. My power supply fan quit a month or so ago, but it was quite painless replacing it.

Oh, hell yeah.
Heat will kill your computer and mech alike. Don't screw around with it. Fans are cheap, too.
I've ordered a new fan for my Athlon because the it's starting to whine. I figure the bearings are going or something.

Sorry, bit slow here, I just assumed case fan.
If it's your chip's heatsink's fan--SHUT OFF THE COMPUTER AND GET ONE NOW.
If it's a case fan, get one only VERY SOON. ;)
