 | View Full Version : cooling fans for AMD T-Bird 1.2ghz eric650 06-13-2002, 05:32 PM If anyone can tell me a cooling fan that will cool an AMD Athlon 1.2 ghz t-bird chip, please let me know. I need it for colo so stability is EXTREMELY important. I need exact model numbers if possible. Thanks. Its in a mini tower case so I can use pretty much any fan that will work. I have a fan that is AMD approved already but it just doesnt cut it. If you have a fan thats tried and true, let me know the model number. Thanks! -Eric Shyne 06-13-2002, 05:39 PM You need a heatsink not just any fan. http://colorcases.com/cooling/cool.html mdrussell 06-13-2002, 06:40 PM CoolerMaster's are pretty good throughout the range, used several of them in the past. John_rwx 06-13-2002, 08:48 PM Take a look at this Thermaltake VOLCANO 7. It uses an 80mm fan. You could put a Panaflo on it for probably better reliability than the stock Thermaltake fan. Not too expensive at $19. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?submit=manufactory&catalog=62&manufactory=1379&DEPA=1 Studio64 06-13-2002, 09:55 PM My Thermaltake Fan & HeatSink running...
