The card works perfectly fine, however it has started an annoying grinding noise.

which stays around pretty much 20% - 70% fan speed
It only gets drowned out by the fan pushing air 70% + speeds
needless to say the temps seem fine, and the card appears to be stable.

So i was wondering is there a way to find out what Fan is used in the XFX 5970 BE.

the reason i asked is i assume since i have tried to watercool the card, and thus taking off the HSF i have voided the warranty and RMA'ing the card wont be an option.

However it seems like a small problem that can be easily swapped for another fan.

I have tried googling xfx 5970 fan etc but have not had any luck.

Is there some website that lists the components used in the HSF for this card?
