Question

Internal laptop fan replacement

Oct 8, 2015 1:34PM PDT

I have read that replacing the fan in an older laptop can be an affordable upgrade to improve performance. Thoughts? The laptop is a HP Pavilion dv2810us. Can anyone suggest replacement fan that would be an improvement over the OEM part?

universal. Cases are different so the best ways to assure it fits is to use the OEM part.
