Hello.
i initiated rma, so please, i dont need advice in that regards, im looking for possible solutions outside of rma, ty.
I recently opened up my nephews Dell OptiPlex to look it over before putting it up for sale. I hadn't noticed any issues until today, one of the fans on the GPU is damaged, based on my experience, it seems to be the bearings, but this GPU isnt like normal video cards. Because of its low profile nature, you can't just swap out one fan ,because they are attached to the shroud permanently. Which means I have to find an entire replacement shroud
i'm aware I could just strap on a couple fans with zip ties and call it a day, but due to the nature of this case ,size is very critical. Does anyone have an idea where I could get one of the shrouds?
As far as I'm aware MSI 750-950 LP will fit. Its the type below. Thank you in advance for any ideas or help within the guidelines I have posted
Edit**
It seems important that I should mention that without the shroud this card is essentially a passive cooled GPU. it has is a large heat sink ,that's about the exact same size as the video card PCB. I'm confident with very minimal airflow this video card could run without the shroud, it seemed like that was important information to mention
