Graphics Card Cooler

[gagan007]

The stock cooler on my graphics card died yesterday due to overheating. A lot of dust was also involved which made it to malfunction. Maybe it stopped working due to which graphics card stopped working and PC was shutdown.

Anyway that's done. Now I need a new cooler for the card and need your advice.

Details are as follows:

Graphics Card: XFX GeFORCE 8600 GT

Motherboard:

CPU:

The fan/cooler...

Also, I would like to take this opportunity to ask for advice on a new cooler for my cpu too, the stock cooler, although, is working fine but maintenance has taken a toll on it. Two of the pins which attach it to motherboard broke so it does not stick to the processor as it should. Any advice on that too will be of great help.

Its about, what u gonna replace??

Cheaper Solution:
R u going to replace only the FAN??
----If so, check the FAN spec and replace it (shud be 12V,0.1A)

Exp:

If u want to replace the whole set with heat sink, then go for Zalman
as suggested by "d3"

Thanks a ton guys for your suggestions. Specially Tenida for that Primeabgb link and d3p5kor for cheap fan link

d3 suggested cheap coolers but they were not available in local shops. I will check out S.P road during the weekend.
Coolers in Primeabgb are wayyyyy expensive!

@Madhu: I was thinking of getting whole cooler (heatsink+fan) replaced. My local shop owner didn't have a cooler so he took the heatsink and asked me to check out later. He will try what you suggested. Replace the fan. But that casing also melted down. I don't know if that will work..
