Hi Guys

Found one of these lying aroundthe other day, fan is knackered on it. Could I still test it in a system without the fan? I cant remember if its bricked or not.

Also anybody know where I can get a replacement fan for it if the card is fine?

Thanks

Remove fan cowling, attach 8cm case fan with cable tie, should do the job.

I'm sure it would run for a while without a fan before getting too hot.

run a temp monitoring tool when you boot it and keep an eye on temps.

I wouldnt recommend running a 4850 without a fan unless its got a nice big heatsink on it.
