简介
This guide is for the replacement of the GPU fan on the video card. Replacing the other fan would be the same steps, just with the other fan assembly.
你所需要的
-
-
If you have any dust caps over the HDMI or Display Port connections, remove them
-
-
-
Remove the 3 screws using a Phillips #1 Screwdriver (Red)
-
Remove the 2 Standoffs using a 5mm socket
-
-
-
-
Gently slide the plate out from between the back cover and the circuit board. It should come out without much force.
-
If it doesn't want to budge, check that the right screw was removed from the top of the video card.
-
-
-
Using the 1.5mm Hex, remove the 4 screws (one on each corner) to release the shroud
-
Note: there is 4 screws on each corner plate, the other 3 screws do not need to be removed.
-
-
-
The shoud should be able to be lifted free easily, on the wiring harness for the lights.
-
The connector for the harness is on the inside end end, nearest the power connectors.
-
The connector can be disconnected to completely seperate the shroud, or left connected if just needing access to the fans.
-
-
-
Using the #1 Phillips Screwdriver, reach between the fins to unscrew the 3 screws holding the fan to the heatsink.
-
-
-
The wiring harness goes under the Blue clip and pulling the wire down will alow it to come free.
-
The Red box is where the connector is located on the circuit board.
-
Use the Tweezers to gently disconnect the connector.
-
-
-
Installing the new fan, I found it easier to connect the wiring first, then the fan itself
-
Connect the connector (the keying points away from you)
-
Seat the cable under the metal clip
-
Screw in the 3 screws for the fan
-
Loosely screw in all 3 screw before screwing them down tight.
-
Careful to not damage the fan blade, as that would cause premature wear and excess noise.
-
