1160961 2010-12-12 04:23:00 :confused: Need to replace both case fan and processing fan.
Have taken out to get details then replaced.
Looked at DSE site, its the only place I know, and they don’t seem to have either of them. Only a 60mm, 80 and 120mm)

Case fan
Foxconn DC Brushless fan
ISF 2J 12V 0.16A
90mm x90mm 10mm thick (me measuring)
Can’t find a part number on it and forgot to look at number of pins

One I’ve seen on o’seas site says Model PV902512L, but it measures 92mm,
The 90mm one says .40A. and on computerstore co.nz have a Deepcool 9cm

Processing fan
AVC model DA09025T12UP
12v = 0.70A 048 IBIS bearing P6515 DC
HP P/N: 5AF50-009
Its 96 x 96mm 25mm thick (me measuring)

Oseas site but it’s always listed with the heat sink too.
Seen fans only, 2 Zalman listed on computerstore co.nz
Both 92x92x25, but listed by speed & noise, and I don’t know what mine is

So
1) From my details would someone please be able to tell me what mm size fans I have, I must be measuring wrong.
2) where is best place to buy or order from
3) Is there a better make I should get r higher voltage?
4) How can I work out what I need to ask for if asking for a different make
5) Can I get the processing fan without heat sink:thanks

1160962 2010-12-12 05:00:00 Go to a real computer shop, unscrew the case fans / CPU fan, then take them with you Speedy Gonzales (78)
1160963 2010-12-12 05:27:00 Yes possible, but where in Wgtn would one go. As mentioned only know DSE, and have no transport.
Also wanted some recommendations of good brand of fans.
Thought if I could work out measurements I could order online.
Alas have never bought any parts before so not au fait with good places.

1160964 2010-12-12 05:38:00 http://ascent.co.nz You can have it couriered to your door.

I have a 120mm DSE fan and it sounded much like a vacuum cleaner - so I bought a fan 'dimmer' so it was bearable :p

Stay away from them though... cheap rubbish.

1160965 2010-12-12 07:28:00 Ta for that site. Still have to workout exactly what I need. Intersting the Zalman are nearly all sold out for 92mm ktee (5538)
1160966 2010-12-12 09:06:00 A couple of other places to try
www.pbwellington.co.nz In Vivian St.
www.atech.co.nz In Wakefield St.

1160967 2010-12-12 09:17:00 Ta will look at those places too ktee (5538)
1160968 2010-12-12 10:32:00 www.techworld.co.nz has the best prices for fans. Best selection, too. Scott the owner is a great guy to deal with too.

By processing fan you mean the CPU fan? Seems like it's a custom one, but you can always ghetto the fan onto the heatsink. As for the case fan, at 10mm thick it's a low profile fan. Is there space for a 25mm thick fan in there? Because it's almost impossible to find a 10mm thick 92mm fan these days.

The Arctic Cooling F series fans are great, but they may be too slow-spinning as a CPU fan under load.
