I just installed the Evercool VC-RE fan as a replacement for the NB fan on my DFI LanParty SLI-DR board. The stock fan was just too loud for me, and as i read on a couple of forums that it would fit, i figured i would give it a go. It was a little bit of a tight fit getting the pushpins to lineup with the stock holes on the motherboard, but it does fit. Also, the videocard BARELY has any clearance (but it didn't with the stock fan either). As for performance, the evercool fan is significantly quieter than the stock fan. In fact, i don't hear it at all anymore. Not only that, but it dropped my NB temps a good 5c.
I got mine from Jab-tech for only $8, but they seem to be out of stock now (probably from DFI owners). Sorry the pics aren't that great, but i just wanted to show that it would fit.
