Broken fan blade on gpu

[FrozenWaffle]

Hello, recently I broke off a fan blade from my gpu because of my lack of cable management skills. I was trying to get this cable out because it was right between the psu and the gpu, now thinking about it, I should've probably turned off my computer before I tried. I tried getting an rma on it but apparently I voided my warranty on the gpu because I broke it. If anyone knows of a way to fix this issue it would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

depending on the GPU you can buy new fans

More details about the card ...

The fans are kind of standardized, they have certain diameters like 92mm , 80mm etc and the way they're mounted is also kind of standard, just have to figure out which standard. Some use 3 screws, others use 4, the angle between the screws can be slightly different.

 

The fans will have some text on the bottom, under the blades, like who makes them, product code, and you can google the product code to get a datasheet or find the same fan on a site like aliexpress or ebay.

If you can't find any code, you can use a ruler or something to measure the distance between the screw holes, and you can then use that information to search for a compatible fan.

 

If this is too technical, take some pictures of the fan, both sides, and I or others can try to point you in the right direction.

Hey, I know it's been a couple of weeks but I was able to find the exact model fan that I need and I ordered it. I'll just have to find some videos or something on how to actually replace it, shouldn't be too difficult. Thanks for the help, it's was much appreciated.
