Where to buy a nice, quiet 40x40x10 fan?

Hi. The AddA fan (AD0412MS-G70) that came connected to the Northbridge chip on my DFI AK76-SN motherboard has been making funny noises lately, so I'd like to replace it with something, not necessarily the same brand, because I haven't been able to find it for sale on the web. I found the specs for the fan on AddA's website, but I haven't been able to find anything for sale on the web that has similar specs. Also, the AddA fan has a two-pin connector, and everything I've seen for sale has three- or four-pin connectors.

Does anybody know of a good place where I can find a decent 40x40x10 fan with a two-pin connector? Preferably a place that stocks the fan I'd be replacing, but I'd be perfectly happy to replace it with something else, as long as it'd do the job properly and not be terribly loud.

Thanks.

I've got one, bare wires though. You're probably going to end up having to splice the connector on to whatever you get anyway.

Now, IMO, 40mm fans are pretty worthless. I'd just slap a nice big heatsink on it, and forget about fans.

You could try the FS/FT forum. That's where I picked up a replacement 40mm fan for my Northbridge.
