need a fan for XPS 8950
i'm hoping a desktop question is ok... i'm running out of options.
the xps 8950 power supply has 2 of these yate loon fans. its part number is D60BV-12. it's 60x60x25mm, with 3 leads. when i ordered one on amazon i received a version that is 20mm deep with two leads (shipped from china)
somehow the third lead delivers a health signal, because when i installed that fan, system performance dropped by about 50%. performance was fully restored when i put the original noisy fan back in. photo shows the label of the fan i need.
i'll be very grateful to be pointed towards a competent supplier. thanks, all. -mark
Es esta una buena pregunta?

bingo! that's the one.
i really thought after using amazon for fifteen years that my searches were thorough, but i missed this one.
it's not the cpu fan, but rather one of 2 fans on the power supply.
this is exactly what i need.
many thanks!

Seems like the comment was deleted. do you have a link to the replacement fan you got with the 3 pin connection? I have the same issue with the noisy PSU fan

Hi Sam -
here is the item from amazon that worked for me
"D60BV-12 12V 0.50A 6025 Cooling Fan 60X60X25MM 3-Wire"
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CPCR...
additional note - the connector on this new fan did not match the physical configuration of the mating plug on the motherboard. so, i cut the connector off the original fan and soldered it to the new fan - black to black, red to red, and yellow to yellow. this worked fine.
