fan for nvidia card

Will Robinson · Post by **Will Robinson** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 2:41 am

My GeForce4 Ti4600 card is running without a fan right now. I took it apart and cleaned it and it started to turn but it still won't run for long before stopping.
Does anyone know where I could order a replacement?

The GF4 Ti cards have different mounting holes than most other cards, so those may or may not fit. <a href=http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDe ... =1>This</a> is the most popular GF4 cooler, but <a href=http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDe ... epa=1>this one</a> also says its compatible, tho i havent heard how well it works. The Thermaltake unit works well, I used one for a while on my Ti4200.

Or, if you wanted to keep the same heatsink, you could just strap a 40mm fan onto it.

I've used the ThermalTake as well-- no problems.

I've never removed a heatsink or used any kind of thermal paste. Is there a chance I'll screw up my card or is it easy to remove a heatsink?
I'm not overclocking it so I thought the stock fan assembly would be fine...

You should be fine. There's just little plastic thingies you have to squeeze to get it out, and it comes with some thermal paste too.

I used a Thermaltake Blue Orb with my old GeForce3 Ti500 and it worked very well. You can buy one for $10.50 at UmaxPC.
