welp, I have no idea, but I'd say you don't need the exact fan, just something close to it... it's not like it won't work if it's not the same brand or something, all it does is blow air.... kinda like Rally

heres the more expensive (but by far most reliable) solution
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835186114
those things kick ass, i want one for mine, but they dun make em for AIW cards
heres the cheaper alternative
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835150006
but honestly, i dun know how well that will work with todays cards... i had an old vid card that worked fine without the fan, but i know that now they like to push things to the limit.... that pci fan is better than nothing, but i dont know if it would prevent your card from just shitting out as soon as shit gets deep (HL2 & the like)
so basically, the top one is a definate fix, the bottom one is a maybe... as long as youre not gaming tho, no fan should be alright (though i might be hesitant to leave the comp on overnight) and when deciding which way to go, remember spending an extra $25 now may save buying a $100 over again (unless u decide it time for an upgrade anyway, then crank that bitch up onhigh & see how long ti takes to burn)

This would be attaching a fan to your card. I really wouldn't reccomend using a PCI slot fan jiggy if you're gonna be gaming at all. Those things do kick ass though

Have you tried powering the other fan from the PS and not the board's fan plug? Or mounting another fan in the case - like a 80mm - just beside your video board?

kewl - zip ties & duct tape are all ya ever need.
that would've been a screenie clasic - BFV helos are a lot friendlier than the DC ones - i love em, esp the cobras.
