I would assume you could, as long as either the fans are the same size and shit. Dont know what cooler youre running.. stock HSF? if so, what socket type.. yadda yadda |

It should work regardless, as long as the plugs match up. However, I would recommend getting an aftermarket one - or an OEM one. |

Yeah new comps! :D Anywho new HSF would prob cost you like 30-40 bucks for a pretty decent one. Cheaper than getting an entirely new comp. |
