Title: 5830 sapphire reference fans?
Post by: zvs on December 26, 2012, 01:58:09 PM
Does anyone know where to buy these... or selling some yourself?

I'm getting ready to sell my 5830's and if I could get the fans for $10 or less, I'm thinking that'd probably increase the value $15-$20 vs having some 120mm fan ziptied on (plus I get to keep my $5 120mm fan!)..

I've bought several fans from this place for both AMD and Nvidia. Replaced the fans in my 5830's with these as well. They cost more than $10 though.

If you order, measure everything beforehand.

I wasn't aware there was a reference 5830. Pics please.

Will those work on Sapphire non-reference 5830s?  The ones with the FirstD fans?

That store has all kinds of fans. Mine were Diamond cards and they worked fine, although a little shorter than the originals height. Measure your fans diameter, height and bolt pattern. Also measure the pigtail length. I've bought replacements for both AMD and Nvidia and all have worked just fine, slow boat from China but they were packed well and all worked as intended.
