| Probably. Standard ones are square with 4 holes at the corners. If yours looks like that it is probably standard. Now do you set it to blow or suck? Many arguments about that! If you have room, stick an adapter on top of the heatsink and a larger fan. It will be much quieter.

| Can't find any from 70mm, sorry. Might be better to replace the heatsink too. Maplin sell 80mm--120mm adapters, also 60mm--80mm I think. They also sell the HS/F assembly.

| Local computer shop? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...%20-%203%20Pin Far more expensive though! You would have to go with suck rather than blow as it is thermostatically controlled.
