🌬️ InRobert GA81S2U Cooler Replacement Graphic: Maximizing Cooling Efficiency Review

I bought these to replace a broken fan on my Zotac GTX 970. I replaced a fan that was bad, this replacement started rattling horribly after just a few weeks of installing it with moderate PC usage. During the replacement, it was apparent that the replacement fan was leaking oil/grease and splattering it all over the card. I replaced it with the second card in the stack, and after just a few weeks, the second fan started fainting. Now I'm looking for a new OEM replacement as these non-original…

A fan started making noise two weeks after installation. I have ordered a replacement. I'll change my rating if the new one doesn't fail either.

The Zotac 970 fans often fail. The fan works, fits well and is not too loud. The price is acceptable, it could be ordered cheaper from China, but whoever wants to deal with it. Thanks for the quick solution.

Excellent fit, easy install, quick repair for a pair of vintage Zotac GTX970s. Extended the life of a graphics workstation that I would rather not replace. Don't be afraid of this repair, it was a very easy replacement. The fan cable/pins were 10mm longer than stock, but that probably makes installation easier - they get out of the way and the fan cover is still clean.

This is the easiest fix for replacing fans, you guessed it, Zotac 970 Tip: If you fix this while you wait, you might get lucky if you get the fan case lift and remove from the spindle, spray cleaner on rotating parts such as brake cleaner, carburetor cleaner, electrical contact cleaner or air flow sensor cleaner, then lubricate with grease and reassemble. In my experience, this is never a permanent fix, but the good news is that these fans are an exact fit, aside from the excessively long wires

The main difference is that the wires are longer, which gives you more wiggle room, but also means you have to figure out how to tuck them away or otherwise get them out of the way of the fans. They worked great replacing the fans on my 970 after it started making grinding noises and I really hoped the replacement cards would fix the problem and they did! Note. You should definitely have a set of small screwdrivers to open the card case and remove the fans.

I'm very impressed. Pretty much the same as buying the GPU. I haven't had any luck with my fans lately. Initially only one fan bearing came loose as I started looking for replacement fans. After scouring the internet I found this replacement and it should be here within a week. So I bought it immediately. After buying it from me, another fan got stuck. I tried to lubricate it and it helped until the fan literally detached from the video card. The original fan that came loose and made me buy…
