The fan is shot on a 7300GT card and need to either get a replacement fan or an entire heatsink. Not overclocking anything on the computer and no game playing. I am in Canada so would prefer Canadian source if possible.

    Can you link to a picture of your card?

    Newegg.ca has a selection of heatsinks that might fit your need.

    In particular, the Zalman FS-V7 2 cooler might work as it is compatible with the 7800.

    Measure the fan dimensions.

    If 45mm across, get: http://www.newegg.ca/Prod...x?Item=N82E16835119081
    If 50mm across, get: http://www.newegg.ca/Prod...x?Item=N82E16835119082

    If the fan isnt 45, 50, or 80 (hack this up), you will need to post the length between the plastic posts (top left and bottom right of heatsink).

    I still think something like this would work: http://www.newegg.ca/Prod...x?Item=N82E16835118116

    Do not bother replacing the fan. For what you would spend, a newer better card can be obtained. There are good deals on ATI 4350 and 4550. You would get a bit more performance and these models are fanless.

    Went out and got an ATI 4350 with a passive heatsink.
