Hi there,
I have a number of these ATi 9800 graphics cards, the Pro model, I think.
They're a very generic design (all very close to the reference design?),
and cards from a number of manufacturers are near-identical.

I have at least three of these cards which are very loud and would prefer a
fanless cooler for one of them. For the others replacement fans would be
fine.
Can anyone supply these, please, or suggest someone who can?
Also, I have an ATi 9200LE of uncertain Chinese parentage. The heatsink on
this is fanless and chromed, and in a warm environment it tends to
overheat, even without any pretty graphics load. The heatsink is c 38mm x
46mm and is secured to the board with those standard little plastic sprung
retainers at opposite corners, 55mm apart. I'm not sure if this is a
standard size of heatsink and it's obviously not worth spending much money
on this card, but if anyone has a decent replacement heatsink then I might
be able to use this in a headless server I'm building. Alternatively any
cheap & cheerful AGP fanless card would be great.
