Size of fan in V4 PS2?

Hey all, I have a V4 PS2, and as i\'m sure you all know, it\'s loud as hell. Well, recently the plastic case cracked (long story...suffice it to say playing baseball in the house is a BAD idea) And I managed to salvage a replacment top cover from a friend\'s broken PS2 (he kept it to use for spare parts). I decided since i\'m gonna have the cover off, I might as well replace that loud fan...I have no issues soldering or anything like that, so thats not an issue.  Also, the warranty has long since been expired from me opening the case to replace a bad laser mechanism a few months back (yes I know I could have replaced the fan then, but I honestly didn\'t even think about it...)

My issue is, I have NO idea what size that fan is (the one on the power supply) I know it\'s gotta be either a 60mm or a 40mm based on what it looks like from the outside, but that still doesnt help me...I have a single 60mm laying around and no 40\'s...I just don\'t want to have the case sitting off my PS2 with it useless while I look for the fan...anyone know what size it is????

heh, don\'t worry about the size of the fan. Worry more about what the fan u plan to use pulls.  To much Wattage and say bye to your ps2.

You don\'t know if it\'s a 60 or a 40.

You own a 60.

I\'m no rocket scientist, but since you obviously don\'t have a ruler, couldn\'t you just hold the 60 you have up to it and see if it\'s the same size.

Call me crazy..

I know I could do that, but like I stated in my post I don\'t want to open it up and not have the right size and have my PS2 incapacitated for the time it takes to get the right sized fan...

as to the first reply, I would put in a 5v fan, just like the stock one...

Oh, nevermind.  I htought it was broken anyway.  Didn\'t see it was just the case.

Doh...
