Quick vf900 Question

Fleekar · Jul 7, 2007

Hey there. So I was wondering if its possible to take the fan out of a zalman vf900 cooler temporarily so its easier to clean the fins. Please tell me how so I don't destroy anything XO, otherwise I'm stuck using a towel, my finger, and cutips.

you'll void your warranty just warning ya, and im pretty sure you'll screw it up if u take it to much apart

need to revise my statement as my initial post may very well be incorrect. After examining a few pics at newegg , it looks like there is alot to remove to get to the screws holding on the fan.

I always used one of my girls old fat makeup brushes(washed of course) to loosen debris, back that up with a good blast of compressed air and they were good as new.

No... as if void the warranty. The fan is very easy to remove, two screws and plate.
