40mm to 60mm fan adapters.

[AudiMan]

Anyone know where I can get 4cm (40mm) to 6cm (60mm) fan adapters?

I need to cool down my northbridge a bit more and it doesn't have any holes to mount a waterblock, and the heatsink is already mounted on the chip with adhesive.

I'm wondering the 60mm are fairly big, and do you think adhensive would be able to hold up, the chipset heatsink, the adapter, and the big fan!

What plan do you plan to use the Delta38 or a screamer? Make sure it doesn't vibrate.

You know what, my mistake,, I just replace the shot 4cm fan on the nortbridge about 30 minutes ago. It has the two mounting holes so I should be fine. I replaced it with a much heavier duty fan that came from a hard drive bay cooler.
(My CPU temps seem a few degrees cooler for some reason,,,, I also noticed that the CPU temps increased when the fan died,,, could the northbridge and the CPU temps be linked somehow?)

My temp now is 46 degrees full load, occasionally going back to 45, before i replaced the fan it was 48 to 49 degrees.

maybe the results have more incommon with what happens when you put a small fan on the back on your video card. My cpu temp drop 2c. So the better fan was moving coolor air arounf the NB and CPU than the old one.

I dunno, those 4 cm fans are pretty damn week. The stock one seems like it has .0005 cfm, and the other one I put on there feels like 1 cfm
