    Has anyone ever replaced the fans in the laptop mentioned above? I'm having trouble with the one on the right when facing the laptop screen and I'm trying to figure out what to get to replace it with. It's whirring a lot and my computer turns off on its own occasionally which is due to the heat I believe.
    Thanks!

    Any p150 model gpu fan such as the p150sm or 150 sm will fit. Make sure your heatsink is cleaned out and maybe re paste your chip before ordering anything. The fan can be removed by itself for cleaning it and the heatsink.

    You would need to contact your reseller or find one on ebay, they are not on general sale.

    "Clevo GPU fan" works for me on ebay for instance.

    Be sure to physically inspect the fan before you begin sourcing a replacement. A whirring could be the result of just about anything caked onto the fan. If it's clean and still making noise or not cooling efficiently, then it's viable to look into a replacement on eBay or, sometimes, through a reseller.
