Replacement Fan Issue - ASUS RX580 - T129215SM

[hashman724]

Anyone else run into this?

Have a ASUS RX580, one of the fans failed.

Everflow Model: T129215SM DC 12V 0.25AMP, 4-Pin, 95mm, Square screw back

Only thing I found was a old ali express listing...

Any ideas?

The cards are still under warranty. I would contact Asus. If you don't want to wait for an RMA, they may be able to ship you replacement fans.

I am in the same situation. Did you found this replacement fan anywhere? Or able to repair it? I couldn't.

If you could make that fit that would work perfectly till you find the fan. Find out how may Millimeters the fan is and find something close to it and splice the wires. Most fans on the 580 should be close to the same size. So one from another company should work if it is same size and fan holes to frame.

there we go

The problem is that they probably are sleeve bearing, like the Gigabyte ones that i had to change on a 1060 G1 Gaming.
I decided to RMA them.

Where's OP, have you fix your problem?
Only adding and share my own experience, in case another member has the same problem with OP's

ASUS have an issue with fan, all of my R9 series card run with 100% fan-speed, but only ASUS that troubled with the fan (more than one ASUS card). MSI, XFX, and Sapphire seem fine till now.

I didn't have time to repair its fan, so I'm just adding 12V PWM fan on the front of that broken fan. Seem worked well for me.

Just because I do not want to start another thread with the same topic I am simply going to ask my question here, sorry if it's off topic.
I have RX580, but Sapphire Nitro+ Special Edition and yesterday I heard that 2 fans on 2 different cards are making some noises and I think of replacing them, because I do not want any trouble in future. The cards came without spare fans tho.
Is it possible to just buy some replacement fans, ofc I will get the same sized fans, not bigger or smaller and install them on my GPUs? Would that interfere in any way with the card?

As long as its dimension same as the original one, It's okay. Like I said in other posts before, I even add external 12inc fan (12V) and use different power source.

Not just possible, it's often better.
You need a good fans (Delta Electronics), same size as heat sink. Not gpu fans, just fans.
Then remove everything from card except the heat sink and put a new ones firmly.
You need an external power supply for it, not from card but from PSU or MB. And it'll be noiser.
In my practice, the cooling is even better than the original solution. It also often cheaper and designed to work 24/7 at 100%, unlike original fans which worn out quite fast if set to 100%.
In case of turbine cooling new heat sink might be needed if it doesn't allow air intake from a top of it.

It is possible, but if you want replacement fans then, according to Vann, you can get them directly from sapphire for not that high price:

Replacements are $12.50 each including shipping from Sapphire and they are super easy to replace.

Isn't sapphire only selling led versions, that slightly different (0.35 vs 0.42 current, different noise floor). Only place I've found CF1015H12D selling is single lot on ali, that not available anymore, and it was $26.5 per fan. So, can you tell where are you getting such cheap replacements from sapphire directly?

The replacement black fans are available from Sapphire. Email Sapphire at tech@althonmicro.com. The LED fans are for retail stores.

Also, more generally good advice it that thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2949541.0;all

Thanks a lot for the idea, mate ! I might try that in the near future. The problem is  that my rig is currently in the middle of my living room, since I cannot afford moving to a bigger apartment, just because it's not worth it just for this rig to do this.
I am planning on expanding, depending on both CMC and GPU markets, and if I see some kind of a green light I might just do that and for sure I will try this technique.
Currently my fans are working at 35-40% load and the cards are around 45 Celsius, which is really good imo. I might buy an external fan just for the summer, because I do not have AC in my apartment and I will need to find a solution about that it.

Seems wasteful, what did you do with your old radiators, just threw them away?

Less heatness? Is that a technical term?

Sapphire nitro gpus and pulse ones are great because Its easy fix.

U can buy extra fans, Its Good to have when u get a fan failure.

You can find on amazon or newegg spare fans to buy for your gpu.

Or if you live in sweden  like me :https://www.komplett.se/product/903002/datorutrustning/pc-komponenter/kylningvattenkylning/flakt/sapphire-nitro-quick-connect-flakt#productinfo

That's good, but also, you need to cool another component on the left and right those fan cooler. That's why its default heatsinks were long enough to reach another element next to it.
