ABIT and the RMA process.

[Sn00py]

Is it possible to converse with a REAL person at abit?

I have an IC7-Max3 board, that I got back in January. the fan on the North Bridge chip is going out (bearing)... I've got a S-ATA raid 0 setup, and a wiring job that makes it very difficult to just take out the board, and do a swap... i JUST want the fan... but so far all of Abit's RMA "service" is all automated.

I just replied back with a "I'll buy the fan, but im not sending my mobo"... in more professional wording of course... but damn..

or if anyone might know where i can buy a replacement? anyone? anyone? buller??

Thanks

the one on my old soyo MOBO was just a standard 60mm fan...... http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=11-999-601&depa=0
make sure yours is too...but that should do it....the double ball bearing will make it last ALOT longer....and its a quiet too.........also you might wnat to look into passive cooling..........a massive passive cooler might do the trick and wouldnt need replacing ever again hope i helped
