Title: Nitro RX 480 Fans Not Working Post by: velma on July 04, 2020, 06:48:44 PM The fans stopped working on one of my Nitro RX 480 video cards. I've replaced fans on Nvidia cards easily, but the AMD card looks different. The fans are housed in the shroud. Just thought I'd ask if this is fixable?

It should take you 3 minutes to change it. (With Gigabyte changing a fan was a much more complex operation which took me half an hour)
Title: Re: Nitro RX 480 Fans Not Working Post by: MATHReX on July 06, 2020, 02:26:44 PM Just search for the model number of fan and you may get results in many websites.
Check out Aliexpress and order a few replacements. It should cost around $10 - $15 dollars. For time being just use a case fan with some twist ties and hook it up directly to the heat sink.

Something common to both, like fan control, or a bad connection seem more likely. Title: Re: Nitro RX 480 Fans Not Working Post by: Set Ready Go on July 07, 2020, 05:19:33 PM Just search on aliexpress this your fan id: CF1015H12D
