WTB 5870 heatsink/fan

[ChuckLez]

Have a dead 5870 but still looking to make a couple bucks off it? You are in luck.

I need a stock operating 5870 fan (or get both the heatsink + fan at a good price)

My current fan rattles (when upside down) and drives me crazy. I hoping to find one that doesnt rattle and save myself the money of replacing with an aftermarket heatsink when this one is already pretty good.

PM me if you have one.

bump, need heatsink

just RMA it or put some oil on it ... shouldn't be that hard..

Yeah peel back the label and some oil.

bump

cant RMA. got it cheap from someone else. works like a dream though

oil did not work. would need to oil the pole the fan sits on, which in turn would require me to rip the fan off, completely disabling then anyways.

Tried spraying some inwards towards the base of the fan, did not work.

Any other ideas....or heatsinks?

Maybe ask around the watercooling section? People who watercool their 5870's don't need their heatsinks and might not check this section. However, I don't know if that's considered "off-topic" for the watercooling section.
