CPU heatsink with fan Lenovo 01YT252 Delta — replacement cooling assembly for Lenovo systems

Replacement CPU heatsink with fan for Lenovo systems, manufactured by Delta. This cooling assembly combines a metal heatsink and an integrated axial fan to dissipate processor heat, helping maintain stable CPU temperatures and reduce the risk of thermal throttling. It is intended as a direct replacement unit for compatible Lenovo desktops or laptops that use the same cooling layout and mounting points.

Advantages

The combined heatsink and fan design provides efficient heat transfer from the processor to the fin array and rapid airflow through the fins for consistent cooling performance. As a single replacement module, it simplifies repair and maintenance by eliminating the need to source separate fan and heatsink parts. The unit is produced by an established cooling manufacturer and is designed to meet typical OEM mechanical and thermal requirements for compatible Lenovo systems.

Suitable for

• Repair or refurbishment of Lenovo systems that require the same form-factor CPU cooling assembly
• Replacement of a failed or noisy CPU fan in compatible Lenovo machines
• Maintenance tasks where restoring original cooling performance is necessary

Key specifications

• Type: combined heatsink with axial fan
• Cooling method: active air cooling with metal fin heatsink
• Compatibility: designed for specific Lenovo system models with matching mounting and connector
• Connector: standard fan power connector used by the compatible Lenovo platform
• Mounting: OEM-style mounting points for direct replacement installation

How to use

Shut down the system, disconnect power, and open the case following the manufacturer service instructions. Remove the existing heatsink and fan assembly by disconnecting the fan power connector and unfastening the mounting hardware in the order recommended by Lenovo. Clean thermal interface surfaces on the CPU and the replacement heatsink, apply a thin, even layer of suitable thermal paste, position the new heatsink assembly and secure it with the original mounting screws or clips. Reconnect the fan power connector, reassemble the system, and power it on to verify fan operation and temperature stability.

Recommendations

When installing the replacement CPU heatsink with fan, use an appropriate quality thermal compound and follow anti-static precautions. Verify that the replacement unit matches the original in connector type, mounting pattern and airflow orientation before installation. If the system exhibits unusual noise or elevated temperatures after replacement, recheck mounting torque and thermal interface coverage.
