Hello,

I have Radeon 4870 released by Force 3D where fan is really annoying me. About two months ago it started to work very loud for 10-15 secs after running, now it's about 2 minutes. I wonder if anyone of you could point me if its possible to change that fan for any other (maybe with direct link to buy

?? I tried to make some research on google on that, but couldn't find any what I can fit in my model.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Regards

here's the card:

It won't fit if it's a non reference pcb on the card. Quite a few have been caught out with this.
