paulktreg Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I need a replacement cooling for for a XFX R7900 Series graphics card. Anybody know where I can get one from in the UK? I couldn't find one on ebay but there are Sapphire branded fans that look very similar. Are these likely to be the same? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 XFX may replace the fan for you, but you may need to ship them the card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulktreg Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 I've sent an enquiry via the XFX website. Let's see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Nice, hopefully you hear something soon. If not, I imagine the Sapphire fans would work if you go the eBay route. Seems to be the case anyway, after a quick look at XFX 7950 fans on eBay and seeing Sapphire pop up. Just match the size and style and it should be good.

paulktreg Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Response: Warranty has expired and XFX do not provide a repair service. The fan is not sold separately. Try ebay. I'll have to risk something from ebay or I may just strap on a suitable case fan and see how it runs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Paul, if you can remove the cooling assembly the fans should have an OEM part number on the sticker on the back of the fan. I've had great luck ordering replacement fans for various graphics cards from a specific seller on eBay. If you can provide the part number I'll check with him.

paulktreg Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Wev Fan details: Manufacturer = First D P.N. FD9015U12S DC 12V @ 0.55A I've found some Sapphire ones on ebay with the same part number but the fan blades and wiring looms may be different? If you can find any that are definately suitable for XFX that would be great. Thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Holy crap they want a fortune for the pair (or even a single). WFB didn't have any but I found others using the following search term on eBay; xfx fan P.N. FD9015U12S The listings will show both the 801, 802 and 901 series fans (so make sure you narrow it down to the P.N. FD9015U12S). Good luck! Here is a sample to get you started http://www.ebay.com/itm/85mm-Fan-Sapphire-XFX-Vapor-X-HD7950-7970-R9-280X-Video-Card-FD9015U12S-From-US-/141557356441?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20f579d799 Since you need it in the UK I'd recommend sourcing from one of the Hong Kong vendors that has a great reseller rating.
