    Hello

    I am writing because I have a problem with my cooler (I have an ASUS X51R), it became very loud a week ago, and I wanted to buy a new one. However, I did not find the appropriate one anywhere. It was not on the official site, and google did not find it anywhere. If anyone has the idea where I can find one, please write it down.

    The cooler is:
    Sunon GB0506PGV1-A
    DC 5V and 1,9W
    Hope you can help me, and sorry for my English, I'm Hungarian.
    Thanks in advance

    thank you andyasselin.
    However this site does not sell the exact cooler I need:
    it sells: 13.V1.B2626.GN, and 13.V1.B2320.F.GN, and 13.V1.B2284.F.GN

    but what I need is: 13.V1.B2495.F.GN

    I have already ordered the middle one from this site, and I realized only when it arrived that it's not the same cooler.:S
    Anyway thanks for the answer :)

    Did you try ASUS eStore, or one of the resellers in the Info Booth?

    If you're in Hungary, it's going to be difficult to get stuff from the US.

    But anyway, you can try calling/emailing one of the resellers and asking by the model type (ASUS X51R) and not by the fan type, because more types of fans might fit in there.

    Once you get a model number, you can either order it from the States, if you can (I'm not sure they ship such small parts across the ocean) or try looking for that part # in Europe, in Hungary or nearby.

    A simpler option is to just take the fan to an electronics store and see if you find one that fits (same voltage, power, RPM rating, and shape if applicable). I'm not sure how likely that is...
