Replacement CPU Blower for Precision 3260

This 80W CPU cooling fan blower serves as a direct replacement for Dell Precision 3260 T3260 CFF Compact Workstation Series. It matches Dell part numbers R89X3 and 0R89X3 and compatible numbers PVB080J12H-P01 and BAZA0834R2U Y001. The unit attaches to the existing heatsink via a 4-pin 4-wire connection and includes thermal grease for installation. Operates at DC 12V / 1.0A with 27.8 CFM airflow.

Upgrading 65W to 80W i7 i9 CPU

Builders upgrading from a 65W to an 80W i7 or i9 CPU in the Precision 3260 Compact should purchase this blower to maintain thermal performance. The package supplies only the fan blower and thermal grease; the heatsink is not included and must be reused. Technicians needing a complete heatsink assembly or servicing a different workstation chassis should look elsewhere.

80W Thermal Rating Match

The single specification that decides fitment is the 80W thermal rating; this blower is specified for 80W CPU configurations in the Precision 3260 Compact. Verify the target processor TDP matches this rating before ordering.
