Hello, my son has a macpro 2008 and the fan has stopped working on his graphics card. We would like to try a replacement fan and hope that the card is still alright. But I'm having a hard time finding a fan. Has anyone here done this and have a part# for a fan? Also, if he does need a new card, what is the recommended card in the lower price range?
Got a tip for us?

This is one of the best coolers around. It has no moving parts (passive) and works great on ATI cards in Mac Pros.

Here is a video on how to install the cooler:

The examples are on a ATI 3870 but it works for the HD2600 as well.
