Purchased this card last May OEM from Newegg. The ATI Fan that came with the card has died. Can anybody recommend a replacement fan/cooling system for this card? Already searched TWW and Google ... want people's personal input/experiences. Cheaper would be better if possible.

Also, anybody dealt with Sapphire warranties? The thing is still less than a year old technically. I *believe* its the Atlantis brand. Any ideas if the fan would still be covered under warranty?

That arctic cooler is great. I'm on my 2nd one.

Seriously, I got a first gen one and it was great, but the fan was loud occasionally. The new ones are supposed to be faultless. I installed a new one on my old 9800 pro and it's been fine ever since.
