Hello!

Up until recently, I had a Asus GT 630 card installed in a spare desktop of mine. Recently though, the fan on the card began to make a very loud buzzing sound that is not normal for a fan to make. Since the desktop has integrated graphics that aren't that much worse than the 630, I just took the card out. However, I would like to revive it via replacing the heatsink, since the only problem appears to be with the fan.

Do you guys know of any heatsinks that are compatible with this specific card? I don't need anything too hefty, the stock cooler worked fine for me before it broke. Thank you.


Here is a photo of my card model I found online:

They made 2 revisions of the 630. One is cooler than the other and would require very little airflow.

If you have an old fan(it just has to sit over the current heatsink), I would rip out the current failing one and zip tie a new one to the heatsink.

They even made passive version of that card(no fan to fail).
