Hi all, 

Currently looking at CPU fan upgrade for my 8570W running a 3940XM. Can anyone advise the JST connector type as i would like to replace fan for a higher airflow unit. 

Current spec: i7-3940XM, 32GB, 500Gb MSata, 1Tb SSD with 965M MXM Gpu.

Thank you for reaching out!

 

Thank you for sharing the detailed information about your HP EliteBook 8570W upgrade. While we understand your interest in enhancing the system’s cooling performance, HP does not recommend or support modifications to the internal thermal components, as these are carefully designed to match the system’s power and thermal characteristics.

 

We recommend visiting the nearest authorized HP service center, where our technicians can assist in inspecting your current cooling solution and advise on suitable options or replacements that meet HP’s specifications.

I am an HP Employee. Although I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
