Replacement ATi HD4890 blower fan?

[AndroidVageta]

Basically, I bought the card on refurb with no option to repair/replace...I just need a new blower fan for it...card works fine except the fan doesnt work...either that or the cards connector is bad...

Anyways...if anyone can help that would be awesome! Thanks!

Here is a thought that I had. Take out the stock fan, and put one of the fan adapters that goes from 120 or 80mm down to whatever size the hole is in the cooler. Then stick a regular case fan on it. Should be nice and quiet too. One of these http://www.svc.com/fanad80to60.html

Of course, crossfire would be a no go with a rig like this.

Another option would be to put an Accelero s1 rev 2 on it.

I haven't seen the ATI reference heatsink available for retail sale. If you post in FS/FT, you might find someone who replaced their stock heatsink with an aftermarket one and will sell it to you. Or just get something like the Accelero, like arkcom suggested.

Check to make sure the connector isn't bad, you might be able to plug in a different fan and see what happens.
