New fan for 9800PRO

Patrick_S

First off, thanks to the many talented and knowledgeable contributors here at ShortMedia. Through their posts and helping of other people, I was able to diagnose my problem: A dead fan on my Sapphire ATI 9800PRO card.

I'm looking for recommendations for a replacement fan. Ideally, I'd like to pick it up at a local CompUSA or something (preferably in the $20-$30 range). As it is now, I can't play any of my favorite FPS since the video either craps out and/or I get numerous "System Failed CPU Test" messages from my ASUS motherboard during gameplay. I could order from NewEgg, but I'm impatient and looking for a local solution... :smiles:

Any recommendations for those who've done this before?

Thanks!

Heres the cooler I would recommend. If you want something cheaper this is a good cooler too. (But its currently out of stock)

The only Fans CompUSA has are 2 times the amount of Newegg... if you want to save tons of cash go through Newegg

Here is what i found at CompUSA and even from what I have seen half of it is not instock at all stores.
