I have a 1060 that it's fan is not running at the correct speed. Normal speed around 75% shows 3k rpm. This one is running at about 2100 causing the temp to be about 6-7C higher than the other 1060. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement fan or what size the fan is, how many screw holes on the fan, center to center screw spacing on fan? I don't want to RMA because the process takes so long. Thank you.

    I would recommend starting by taking out the card and putting it back in checking to make sure it's seated right in the slot and everything. Next check to make sure all drivers and software is correct. At that point you probably would want to RMA it. Taking apart the card to replace a fan is not something I would recommend for a card still covered by a warranty. 

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.

    I forgot to mention that. I did swap PCIE slots, power supply cables, and even reseat the fan connector itself. I work on cards and components under a microscope for work so replacing a fan is easy stuff for me.

    This may be the one you are looking for:

    There are all kinds of fans on ebay. Just check the size, number of mounting holes, and wiring.

    $19.48

    AliExpress is also a good (maybe even better) source for replacement parts.

    Thank you. I've got the part saved on my list. I'll take the card apart this weekend and confirm sizing.
