Hi

Wondered if anybody knew of a UK supplier of AMD stock cpu hs fans or
fan/hs complete?

My standard AMD fan has gone into the buzz zone. I fitted a Vantec
Aeroflow as a replacement - very efficient, but couldn't stand the
noise and peculiar pong it emanated.

Looking round for a replacement fan only, can find only 60mm case fans
which turn at around 2500 rpm or accredited screamers like the Sunon.

Maplin have one which turns at 3800rpm, anybobdy have any exprerience
of their own brand fans?

Bottom line, I just want a replacement standard AMD fan...:-(


Anybody???

Doesn't the fan have a three-year warranty?

If I were you, I would forget the standard AMD fans.

I recommend the Arctic-Cooling Copper Silent 2 TC R2 (£8.41)

If you want a slim fan, the Arctic-Cooling Slim Silent Pro TC (£11.74)

If you have a window case, the Arctic-Cooling Copper Silent 2L (£8.22)

Thanks for the pointers. But, after the Vantec, I'm really wary of
aftermarket fans. The standard fan was pretty discreet noise wise.

I will continue on my weary search

(Cpu is three and a half years old, Andy)

Maybe try a Speeze Falcon Rock. It is an oversized but tapered CPU
Cooler with a slower rpm 80mm fan. In the US I can buy one of these
for less than $20.00 US delivered from www.newegg.com

Here is a picture:

Thanks Wes and USA_Guy.

If I can't find a stock amd fan, I'll think I'll go with the 60 - 80
mm adapter and a Panaflo 80mm case fan.

Cheers
