Did you break the fan when taking the fan apart or just the fan off the cooler?

If it's the latter, you can probably contact Noctua for a replacement fan.

Nah when I was taking it apart. I might and up getting the Noctua industrial fans though they are kind of pricey.

Well maybe? I was kind of tired of the brown.

Noctua has just announced their new line of fans that aren't beige and brown - they're more expensive, but they are all black with coloured rubberised mounts that come in any of black/white/red/blue/green/yellow to match your build.

Yes, they are. The iPPC's use a different motor when makes them not as quiet as normal Noctuas whereas the Chromax line is the same fans but in black. https://noctua.at/en/products/product-line-chromax

If you would like some cheaper alternatives, let us know where you're shopping/located.

PW2 is good: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/fkCwrH/be-quiet-case-fan-bl046

For a bit more performance, you could go with a Vortex: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/ZVkD4D/cougar-case-fan-cfv12hp
