Worked like a charm for my HP Omen 15 ax 250wm.
So for those of you worried/wondering whether this fan will be able to fit in your laptop, go to HP part surfer and type in your laptop and check if the fan in your laptop is L18458-001. This is a pretty common part and this product fit my laptop even though it wasn’t officially listed on as the supported model. With compatibility out of the way, let’s talk about the product itself.
I personally bought this fan because the stock one on my omen started to rattle like the video I posted(that’s before the replacement). Knowing there certainly was an issue with one of the fans(you can figure this out by turning the laptop off, carefully opening the back and seeing whether the rattling starts/stops when a fan runs/stops or try unplugging one of them). So all I had to do was just replace the faulty fan when it arrived. The fan itself is high quality. Like one of the other customer wrote on their review, it certainly feels better than the other cheap fans out there(this costs similar to the replacement fan you could order off the hp website but I did not have faith in the part that broke on 6 months of regular usage so i decided to go with this) and felt sturdier than the stock fan. So now it works like a charm and is quite like its new.
As for the thermal paste they mentioned, don’t expect much. They are branded as “GD66” and presumably chinese make and just a very cheap thermal. But hey it’s a nice gesture.
Overall, it was a lifesaver for me because as a poor college student, I did not have the money to take this in for a repair and my warranty expired two months ago so I had to figure all this out and it turned out to be great. If you are sure about what’s broken, just buy yourself a tool kit, parts and fix it yourself. As long as you take your time, research, and don’t put too much force into it, you can’t go wrong.
