    I just purchased a M1330 (with 8400M GS) for a girlfriend and am curious about this damn little machine..
    I bought a 1,5 mm copper piece right away for the copper mod anyway..
    weeelll, 2 things that popped in my mind researching the well known probs:

    - there are two different cooler/ heat pipe models for the M1330 the one with the fins and the
    other one without.
    are these interchangeable, and does the ones with the fins have advantages (bigger contact surface)?.. eg for the copper mod with two copper plates / GPU and Northbridge.

    - Are there recommended, BETTER CPU replacement fans? I mean, this little fan is the main important internal cooling feature..another one with better pullthrough..a good Papst/ Noiseblocker/ Scythe or something with the same eletric features..

    original fan part :
