Getting a replacement fan & heatsink module for my MSI NX6800GT (agp)

Hi all,
I got a bit of a problem, the fan on my MSI NX6800GT (agp) sounds like a dog, after removing the card and having a look, it appears that the spindle that holds the fan in place has worn out (the fan seems to drop down onto the plastic and thats what is making the noise) . Its buggered basically. Do any of you fine people know of where I can get a decent replacement fan and heatsink?
All help appreciated
John

OK, I ordered one of those  nv silencers, I thought about contacting MSI like you guys said but after reading about this product I thought what the hell . . . £20 but worth it.

It came yesterday, so last night I installed it, fitted well, one small thing on the instructions, there is an "L" shaped metal bracket called a passive heatsink plate, now I know my **** from my elbow but could I work out where this was supposed to go? . . . NO.
Anyway it appears that I dont need this bit, why cant they just say "this bit is optional". Kinda scary fitting stuff like this when youre as green as me.
Anyway, all went well. Thank you all.
Regards
John

  • The battery for my macbook pro 13 says "service battery".  Now I want to get a replacement but the reviews for it are horrible! Does anybody have any suggestions?

    The battery for my macbook pro 13 says "service battery".  Now I want to get a replacement but the reviews for it are horrible! Does anybody have any suggestions? I don't want to spend 130 dollars on something I'm going to have to replace in less than a year (which is what normally I been reading)  I do design work and I take my mac everywhere.  Having to always look for a plug or having to be constantly plugged in doesn't sound ideal to me.  Please help me. what should I do???

    Why does it matter if it a scam????? I'll let you figure that out by yourself.  If I'm going to replace it, why should I be contempt with a battery that I have to replace within months (as stated by some people in the comments). The issue here is not if I should or not replace it OBVIOUSLY I'm going to have to before it starts going crazy.  The underlying issue is why is the replacement battery for a lack of better words " a bit crap."  It comes with a 3 month guarantee?? Is that a joke?!??!?! Some people complained it malfunction after only 8- 9 months? I'm sorry but as an Apple fan I think it's absolutely rubbish. I know there is no magic cure I'm just hoping someone shines the light on how crappy this replacement is.

  • My iPod touch 8GB screen has been cracked. It is still under the Wal-Mart 2 year extended warranty, but I really want 5th generation! Any way to get it replaced then return it for money back or even get a discount on it??

    Apple will only give you a 10% discount if you turn that one in and purchase the new one.
    I do not know if the WalMart warranty covers accidental damage like a broken screen.

  • Getting a replacement start up disk for imac

    How to get a replacement start up disk for my imac?
    I lost the original startup disk and the mac didn't start up, only with "?" folder.

    Call Apple technical support. They can probably sell you a new set of the original disks for a reasonable fee, if your iMac did come with installation disks (Macs that shipped with OS X 10.7 or 10.8 did not come with disks).

  • Pentium D retail fan/heatsink good for Core 2 Duo?

    Hello everyone.  I had a quick question about the retail fan/heatsink that comes with a Pentium D 805 processor.  My brother just ordered an Allendale Core 2 Duo CPU to upgrade his motherboard close to it's best supported CPU.  Well, he's a bit cheap and I was wondering since the retail cooler for a Core 2 Duo is so small, wouldn't the cooler from the Prescott CPU be a better cooler since it's about 2.5 times as big?  If it was me I'd get an aftermarket cooler, but that's the only two options I have to work with sadly.  Thanks for your input.

     And if you are in the USA and could convince him to spend a few bucks I can definitly recommend this: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=10007052&prodlist=froogle
     I bought one and it lowered the temps by about 15C from the stock quad Intel cooler on mine.

  • How do i get a replacement fan for my imac

    my CPU fan has recently gotten too loud for my confort and i want to replace it. Everytine I go to the Apple service request form and fill out all the answers, I get to a part where it states and there are no billable parts and gives me a number. I can't seem to continue from there. I want to do the replacement myself and don't want to send it in for repairs (long wait times)
    P.S. I have APPLECARE

    Try to discuss the matter with AppleCare. You can always use the online chat. Tell them your time constraints and ask them what they can do for you.

  • T61 14,1" non-ws - nvidia replacement fan/heatsink

    Hi. My mainboard died (previously it was an intel board), and I got a replacement nvidia board (yes, I know about the problems with nvidia boards). However, I wasn't aware that the cooling unit was different, and since the change of the webpage, all I get when looking for hardware manuals, is "File not found".
    So, I was hoping somebody could help me with a part-number for an nvidia heatsink for the 14.1" 4:3 ratio T61.

    Whaa! Sorry, I misread your post, you need the number for the discrete graphics fan;
    There are only two fans for that system, one each for integrated and discrete.
    If I get time I'll upload the manual to somewhere and send you a PM with the link, probably this evening.

  • How to get a replacement AC charger & cable for a new Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini

    I've had my new Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini for a few days.  Last night I plugged in the phone's wall charger and cable to charge.  The following message appeared on the screen: To charge faster use the charger and cable provided with this phone.  I did use the charger and cable that was shipped with the phone.  Then the charging indicator under the Settings menu changed from charging to not charging several times.  I noticed that the plug into the phone was a little loose. 
    There is a little black tag on the cable with the following:  For warranty replacement of your phone call 1-866-406-5154
    I called the number to see about getting a new cable and wall charger.  I was offered a free medical alert necklace if I was older than 50, and then I was told that I had won a free cruise and was asked about personal info such as social #.  I never did get to speak to anyone about the problems I am having with my charger. 
    So, I'm hoping I get two things resolved with this post.
    I need a new cable and wall adapter to charge my new phone.
    I would like someone to know that the cable that came with my new phone has a black tag on it with a phone number.  And when called, they ask for personal information in exchange for a free cruise on a ship.
    Thanks!
    Liz

    Visit a corporate store with your phone and charger.

  • Can i get a replacement pair of earphones for free.

    a couple of months ago i bought myself an iphone 5s which came with apple earpo headphones. i am a very careful person but within a month these headphones broke. i contacted apple several times for a replacement pair but had no luck. so i gave up and i bought a replacement pair of apple earpod headphones and within 4 days they have already broken (the right earphone doesnt give out sound). i took great care of them and i only used them 3 times am i entitled to a replacement for free?

    If the iPod is within warranty, not abused and defective, including the battery, then Apple will exchange your iPod with a refurbished one.  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to find out.

  • Where can I get a replacement output tray flap for an Officejet 4620

    Because of how my work area is set up, I've bumped the little plastic flap on the extendable tray for printed pages on the 4620.  (The little plastic pivot point on one side broke off.)  I fabricated a workaround using a soldering iron and later a straight pin, but it's not working the way I'd like.
    Is it possible to buy a replacement part for this model?  If so, where and how.

    Hello there, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
    I read your post about your question about replacing a part that had broke. I would suggest calling into HP and inquiring with them to see if the part is available.
    Here is their contact info:

  • HT6061 Where can you get a replacement 512 SSD drive for these? Can you get one directly from Apple?

    Looking to purchase the original 512 ssd drive that comes in the late 2013 mac pros.. i cant find anywhere online but Ebay to buy one from. Are they available directly from Apple?

    Apple does not sell the SSD parts separately to my knowledge. If your SSD is defective and was an original Apple item, any Apple Store or authorized Apple service provider can replace it. They won't sell you the part so you can do your own repair, though.
    Why would you need to replace yours when your Mac is still in warranty? Are you trying to upgrade? If so, I don't know of any available as of this time, though OWC says they'll have SSD upgrades for the 2013 MP later this year.
    Regards.

  • HT201250 When getting a replacement Seagate hard drive for my Imac through Apple, will they restore my system to it's current state? Or will I have to do it myself though Time Machine? Will Time machine restore all the programs as well?

    Apple has determined that certain Seagate 1TB hard drives used in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac systems may fail. These systems were sold between October 2009 and July 2011.
    Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) will replace affected hard drives free of charge.
    Will this replacement program restore my system to its current state after the new drive is installed? If not, will I have to have all my original disks to re-install all the programs on my current computer, or will Time Machine restore them as well?

    Most of them will tell you to backup your data.
    Time Machine is nice, but unless you are interested in archival backup, Carbon Copy Cloner is a lot easier to recover from:

    I ordered the HS already and now it is starting to worry me. Maybe aviator can tell me if his install went well.
    Anywaz...the MSI K8N NEO is the only board available in Toronto, Canada and I need to build my A64 system soon. Seeing so many quirks and complaints on the forum, it is beggining to scare me. Maybe some of u guys can convince me.
    Finally, will this MSI board work with the Corsair XMS 2.2.2.5 RAM?
    thanks alot!
