Great product just measure first

I have an old Radeon HD 4650 1GB AGP card that has been working great for years, but the cooling fan finally kicked the bucket. I didn't want to dump 30-50 on a replacement fan, nor did I want to buy a new card for 100. I went ahead and bought this cooling unit, thinking it would fit right on and fix my problem. Unfortunately, the pre-drilled holes on the Iceberg didn't line up with the pin holes on my video card. BUT, luckily it DID fit in the empty space left on the stock heatsink once the original fan unit was removed. It literally fit like a glove. The Iceberg's original mounting brackets had to be trimmed off slightly so they would not block the pin holes on the heatsink, so a simple pair of wire cutters did the trick. I then used one of the double-sided heat tape squares included with the Iceberg kit to secure it inside the heatsink, and Presto! The card is now running 10x better than before.

More than I expected....

I bought as a replacement of a toasted original. The box included additional heatsink as well as mounting thermo gel and retaining spring pins. There is also a jumper harness for mismatched plugs. Runs cool, quiet, works well. Happy so far. Delivery extremely quick, considering 2 weeks pre Christmas! Outstanding job! John W.

Dead NB Fan Replacement

I bought this to replace the dying Northbridge chipset fan on my motherboard. This was a very easy swap. Great product for the price.

Nice product with the extras

The product comes with the heatsink and fan, and two other heatsinks, thermal compound and thermal tape to allow various applications. If I anything bad to say it would be that there was no 3rd wire for the fan speed, therefore my display reads 0 rpms. This was a replacement for my original NorthBridge fan, and space was limited as it sat behind the 7900GTX video card.

A great product at an unbelieveable price

I had only very recently upgraded my onboard video to a separate video card that, within days, developed a very noisy fan. I ordered this cooling fan kit for 10 bucks and it solved the problem. No more noise! The installation went without a hitch. It fit the video card perfectly although I did need to use the wire connector-adapter that was included but this was simple and created no problems. I highly recommend this product!

Does what it says

My northbridge fan seized so I replaced it with this one. I couldn't find one at any retailers in town. Comes with everything you need including thermal paste. Power cable was plenty long. Only used for a couple months so can't speak to longevity but I expect it to outlive my failing PC.

Works Great

Purchased this fan to replace the fan on my PNY 6200 graphics card. The bearing was going out in the fan that the card came with. I still can't believe the noise it made. Installation was easy. Installed about a month and a half ago and the no problems. Fan is nice and quiet.
