Review on πŸ”₯ HK-Part GPU CPU Cooling Fan Replacement for MSI GS63VR Series GS63VR 6RF GS63VR 7RF GS63VR Stealth Pro MS-16K2 MS-17B1 BS5005HS-U2L1 BS5005HS-U2F1 by Paul Powell

Much higher tempo, not original.

My CPU fan died about 2 weeks ago so I decided to buy a replacement. I took my laptop (GS63vr Stealth) to my local bestseller store (where I originally bought the laptop) and the Geeksquad team installed these new ones. Don't get me wrong, they work but are a lot worse than the originals. They don't run as fast as the originals and my laptop has had much higher temperatures and frame drops since I installed these fans. Even if I go to the middle of the kite and push the fans to maximum speed, I can barely get past 3000 rpm when the originals went to twice that speed. The spec also says the fans come with thermal paste, but I have the fans in a crappy plastic shroud with no thermal paste. Too bad my almost 2 year old laptop isn't working as well as it used to just because of those crappy fans listed and MSI won't even provide a link to buy original replacement fans. Overall unprofessional experience.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was
