Viglen Genie L1 - Compatible CPU Fan?

[Alexander91]

Hello

 

Hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction, we have experienced quite a few CPU fan failures with our Viglen Genie L1's over the last couple of years, they have just fallen out of warranty and one has decided to fail.

 

We are struggling to locate a replacement fan for it from somewhere other than Aliexpress & PCHUB. i was wondering if anyone else has had these issues before and been able to locate a compatible fan for these?

FanBrand : Yetu

Model : YD7015HS

 

 

Thank you in advance

Try searching Amazon or eBay for laptop CPU coolers. I'm a bit busy atm so can't have a good look for you.

Confident we can help @Alexander91 as we used to use the same chassis for our previous generation Flex Micro :-) Message me if needed. Best, Col

Hi all, how do you open the Viglen Micro Genie L1 case please - I have taken off every screw and still can't get the lid off!

Hey Taz, email me and I'll forward you over a guide for that chassis. best, Col

Hi, I have a similar issue, been scratching my head for a while as to how these micro cases come apart.Any chance of a hand too?  Cheers

Good Morning

 

Remove the securing screws, hold the machine vent facing up, rear IO to your chest and front IO facing away then push forward.

Hi,

 

just bought one of these off eBay and don’t have torx security screw driver. 
can someone tell me which I need to open it so I don’t waste a tonne on Amazon!

Those screws in the cover are a red herring, they do nothing. Just get all of the screws out of the side of the case, then lift up the black "clip" at the rear of the case and push forward.
