inRobert DIY Two Ball Bearing Graphic Card Fan 85mm Diameter 40x40x40mm Cooling Fan for Gigabyte GeForce GTX1060 1050 Video Card

I knew this fan was specifically for my graphics card (Zotax GTX 1060 mini), but it had the same dimensions as my existing fan which was failing, so I tried it.I had to make several modifications to the fan, but once I did, it worked just fine. It makes a slight, normal, fan noise and effectively keeps my GPU cool.For my graphics card, the wire tray off the fan base was too long to fit in the heat sink, so I cut it short enough. The fan connector was also a male end, which didn't fit the male port coming off my graphics card, so I had to careful detach the wires from the connector and attach them to my old fan connector (it was quite the effort, but my fastest option). With those two modifications, I was able to plug it and have it work from the get go.

Great reasonably priced solution. Very quiet, even very reasonable at 100% fan speed. Any fan will make noise at 100%, but very smooth and easy on the ears... Kept my 570 at 75 running Final Fantasy XV benchmark at 75C max, which is good compared to the 80C+ it was going before... Not saying this is High Performance. But it is a $15 solution to a broken fan blade issue crippling the card...When buying a set of fans. Especially for MSI. You need to make sure you have the same numbers of wires, as well as the plugs. I tried to rig up 2 R7 270X fans I had. They were 3 wire fans, and 6 wires going into the 4 pin connector that plugs into the card. What you need for this model is 4 wire fans going into 8 wires on the 4 pin plug. Seems like it wouldn't make a difference, but the card wouldn't power the R7 fans....

I have bought two of them for XFX RX470s.Pros: they worked, they fit, they were the diameter that I ordered, priceCons: white connectors instead of black like 98% of gpus, wires were a bit too longPay attention to the thickness of the fans. I did not and they protrude out of the shroud like 1/4” (5mm) making it a bit of a hazard but I couldn’t care less for my mining rig.

Reeemplaza perfecto al original.

I liked that the internals were not covered by a sticker, could see inside the coil assembly. Hoping these fans last longer than the previous cheap ones I had in my video card. I guess check back in a year and I'll see if these fans die like the last ones (Not this model, I bought cheap ones last time and they barely lasted 6 months). Hoping not since this has ball bearings!

My MSI RTX 2080 TI Duke fans ended up screeching at the lowest fan rpm. I tried the lubrication method and found out the source to be the sealed ball bearings.These ball bearing fans were a perfect match. Uninstalling my oem fans would have required separating the gpu heatsink since the fan connectors could not be detached with them on. Instead I dissected the fans and swapped the ball bearings. Now my oem fans are whisper quiet again.

Replaced dead fan on RX560. Worked. Runs cool now . Only thing was it had the wrong coupler for it ,so I had to do some soldering.

As you can see it is perfect for the R9 285 (XFX)... the brushless fans that were on it did their time...
