TwinFrozr II (heatsink fan broken) - new model ?

[-PetitVilain]

Hey guy,

 

 

I currently have an nVidia GeForce GTX560Ti (N560 GTX II-Ti TwinFrozr published by MSI).

Unfortunately, I have two broken fan blades and right when I play 3D game, the card emits huge vibration.

 

So I searched the net and I find this model cooler made ​​by MSI, but I do not know if it will be compatible:

http://www.msi-computer.co.jp/VGA/Twin_Frozr_II/img/Twin_Frozr_II_2D1.jpg (purs link https://www.alternate.de/html/product/MSI/Twin_Frozr_II/896386/?)

 

Can you tell me please if it is compatible or give me a link to a TwinFrozr compatible (or reference).

 

MSI takes me ~ € 100 for the repair with shipping costs, whereas if I buy myself that I would have mounted and € 45.

 

Thank you in advance

It's very reasonable to assume that the Twin Frozr II will fit cards already fitted with one.

You think this model is compatible?

Isn't there just some way to replace the fan itself instead of the entire heatsink? I'm sorry I couldn't be more help, I have no experience with the Frozr cards. However, instead of purchasing the whole heatsink, you might want to check Ebay or the likes for a fan that will work.

You said the card you have from MSI is already equipped with one. There's no reason it shouldn't.

Looks like both are same.

MSI released it for the TwinFrozr II, then it should fit definitely.

i have the MSI GTX560 - Ti TwinFrozr II, that heat sink fan assembly looks the same except with the color

But why not something like : Arctic Cooling Accelero Twin Turbo II VGA Cooler or something from Zalman ( if you buy from Alternate) ?

hmmm... that cooler looks good, with RAM / VR heat sinks/thermal glue included. and manual tells it's compatible with the 560 -Ti

the TwinFrozr II cooler/heat sink skips the RAMs / VRs (they're not in contact with the heat sink, it's just the GPU alone)

but be advised for the Arctic's height installation clearance

Thanks for reply.

I see this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAxyqbwZYpo. Do you think it's OK ?.

In this video we can see 5 heatpipe but in ref model by MSI only 4

that looks nice tho i'm lost with the language

but.... the box aint showing support for the GTX560, just 570/580. idk what's the difference between the 560 -Ti and the 570,580s....... dimensions.

better check those for mounting compatibilities or contact MSI to make it sure.

Ok

I've contacted MSI Care support. Thanks for rep.
