Yeah I was looking over a few listings on fans but I'm pretty partial about it,  cause I've been seeing a lot of compatibility issues. 

You could always contact Zotac, explain the situation and ask them if you could buy the fans from them. I guess you could use a normal fan to cool it for now, but make sure it is aimed at the radiator. Other than that, I am not sure if you can do anything else.

Hey guys, the fans on my Zotac GTX 970 ( ZT-90101-10P) are starting to give up on me. They would spin or not spin at all on several occasions and I can't even use it anymore for more than 15 mins for any 3D applications. What's the best course of action for this? Temporarily, I've put my case fan on top of the gpu shroud with hopes that it would cool it but I'm still sitting around 80c while playing just CS:GO.

Have you looked for fans or whole coolers on eBay ? You might find one and replace yours.
