Does anyone know where one can get a new heatsink/fan setup as described here for the GAZE16? https://tech-docs.system76.com/models/gaze16/repairs.html#replacing-the-cooling-system

My fans are screaming loud death rattle, and no part # is listed

Going to contact system76 support as well

EDIT, meant to type gaze16 not 17. cant change the title

Did you check the fan connections? I have a GAZE16 and the GPU fan started running really fast nearly constantly. I opened it up, reseated the fan connection and problem solved. Just a thought. I imagine you have to contact System76 to get info on where to get parts.
