John McGaw found a model that looks perfect. The fan attaches by
pressing the holes in the corners into plastic pins until small snaps
at each pin snap over the edge of the plastic fan housing to clasp
it. Works great, fast dis/assembly.

You could get it at half the price at Newegg; see:

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...9SIAAES6CM9290
(5% off by using the promo code SXDOOL5)

Both Amazon and Newegg operate storefronts they sell to sellers. For
both the Amazon and Newegg listing, some 3rd party is selling. The
product does not come from Amazon or Newegg but through a storefront
there. For the price of the Delta fan through Amazon, you could get a
better Noctua fan through Newegg.

It is cheaper at Newegg, and that item includes free standard shipping.
Also, Newegg covers Marketplace sellers with Newegg's own guarantee
(https://kb.newegg.com/Article/Index/12/3?id=1172). With Amazon, you
only have the seller to resolve problems. Usually Amazon is more
expensive even at the same product price because of shipping; however,
this item claims free standard shipping, too. With Newegg cheaper on
price on the same product, free shipping (to match the Amazon ad), and
with Newegg's additional guarantee, I'd go with Newegg.

That fan is even cheaper at eBay ($6.84) and also with free shipping;
see http://tinyurl.com/ybezmxq8. eBay has their Buyer Protection.
Since you were looking for a USA seller, I selected the option at eBay
to list only USA seller locations. You might want to elect "Buy It Now"
to eliminate any auctions that only take bids (which delays when you win
the item and way too buyers are boobs that overprice their winning bid).

In the meantime, you might want to blow the dust out of your neighbor's
computer, including cleaning the fans how I mentioned. It's possible
that crud is layered on the fan's blade which throws it out of balance,
so it makes more noise.

Thanks Vanguard, great research, thank you.
