Well the title really says it all. The fan on my Peltier/Alpha heatsink combo died. What kind should I get insted of it? I have a Celeron 2 566 Oh yeah I bought the peltier combo from Tom Leufkens.

I got my Taisol through http:www.inflowdirect.com - the order went fine, the product made it to me in about a week (great considering I'm in Canada and it had to do the customs thing!) At the time they were one of the few that had the Taisol and it was only $20US. They've got a fair range of separate fans under the 'case fans' section.

it came on my hedgehog that i got from plycon.com thay also have quit a selection of other stuff manly geared to the over clocker sent a few emails to the owner and he responded rather quicky which was a suprise most emails i send take a day or two to get back one other place i like is ibuyer.com usaley get very good prices there
 
So Tepin did U not pay that sucky rip off brokerage fee that UPS charges? Almost equalling the cost of the Taisol. WILL Not using UPS anymore.

Not far as I know...by the time things got converted to Canadian $ it worked out to about $40.00 (original cost $US was 20 (cost+shipping) - not too bad for a quality HSF. I know what you mean about UPS - they're brokerage charges suck, but this time it seemed to come through without too much of a glitch.

I'm just working on a template to adapt a 80mm fan to the 60x80mm heatsink. I've got the speed upped to 1.2 GHz on the chip, but the heat is creeping up a little higher than I want it. Got it done on cardboard now I just have to do the metalwork. I'm always a little leary of putting metal into a computer case but I'm handier with the snips than with plexi! <G>
