3 blades off of my PowerColor PCS+ 7970. I've been looking around and cannot find a replacement fan or any full VGA coolers that work with a 7970 - they are all discontinued. What should I do? Find a VGA cooler, find a new fan, or just roll with a broken fan (still spins but 3/9 blades are broken off)? Thanks

Well if your temperatures are constantly low enough to be acceptable, you can just keep rolling with it, thought it would be better to buy a new aftermarket cooler.
If I may ask, how did those 3 blades become broken? xD

Not sure if your case can handle it, but the Prolimatech mk 26 is a beast of a cooler. You will have to buy 1 or 2 fans but the amount of heat it can dissipate off of your GPU is incredible. I use one for my 780 GTX and the temps dropped over 40C!!

I was reaching underneath the card to see how hot it was because I was running a new game and they nicked my knuckle and broke.
