    I am looking for the heatsink for an Acer Travelmate 8200 series (8204, 8210, 8215, etc). Mine failed to conduct heat through the heat tube over a year ago and I have since been looking for a replacement without luck. I currently have a fan blowing directly on the CPU/GPU to keep it from shutting down due to overheating.

    This is what it looks like:

    Please PM me if you have any spare parts laying around or know where I can find one :)

    Also, I still have the fan which works perfectly. It's the heatsink and copper tube that I need.
