Help with a fan replacement for AIW 9000

[LeprechaunKing]

Can anyone point me to a replacement fan, or a good site to purchase from? I checked newegg and as far as I can tell, they don't have a replacement that will fit. I found a site via google saying a Vantec Iceberg 4 would fit, but couldnt find dimensions.

I haven't ever bought a GPU fan or heatsink, and want to make sure I get one that fits. My vid card is an ATI AIW 9000 64mb AGP card. The fan itself is 45mm x 45mm x10mm high. There is not any extra room to top left of fan, so I think i need an exact fit.

Any suggestions on fans or reputable dealers would be appreciated. Sorry if I asked a common question, didn't see any similar questions by searching.

Thanks

Ryan

Teh Iceberq 4 series is a great cooler, even tho its a 60mm fan...

I've used one of these on a GeforceFX5200 with good results.

I think it would work perfectly for your situation.

Thanks for the suggestion. I see the BFG fan is listed as a generic, but I couldn't find any specifications on the size or what models it will work on.

If my fan is 45mm x 45mm x10mm high is it a 45mm fan, or is a 60mm since is is 60mm corner to opposite corner?

Thanks again

I remember that BFG unit being closer to 60mmx60mm, but I gave that card to a friend a while back so unfortunately I can't measure it for you. Almost sounds like you may be better off finding a larger Passive chipset cooler and mounting a case fan so it blows over it.... Or perhaps look into a Chipset HS/F as those will be the smaller ones.

Here's all the 45x45mm fans on newegg.... All 2 of them

Can't you just leave on the stock heatsink, and replace the fan? 60mm fans are'nt all that uncommon.
