I need some suggestions to upgrade my OEM HSF on my 9800 pro. Seems the fan will periodically just quit, and I can't even flick it back into spinning.
I also ask as I have noticed a large number of VPU Recovering going on, last time it happened, my fan had stopped. This was about a month or so ago, I took the card out, unplugged the power to it. . . put it back in, gave it power again, and the fan finally worked. But after 14-15 days straight now, seems it has died on me again. I'll prolly end up taking it back out, reseating it, and applying the power to it once more. . . but I think it's time to just replace the hsf.
Any suggestions for a reasonablely priced HSF upgrade? Rumor has it that the AC silencer is a pretty good suggestion, anyone else?
