I was just wondering if the sizes are physically similar enough to allow them to be swapped, more specifically a 5870 fan -> RX 480
Also, if the fan connectors are identical?

Thanks

Doubtfull, unless they are from the same brand same series.
It's not a "card model" issue as a general rule, it is a "card MANUFACTURER" issue normally.

 Even within the SAME manufacturer the fans will normally have changed quite a bit over THAT many generations.


 The fan connections might fit, there's only 2 or 3 of those in common usage on GPU cards.


I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

Hrm.... well many reference 5000 and 6000 series cards use the same blower fan.... was wondering if it would happen to work w/ blower fan on newer reference 480's ....
