3 blades broke on a fan and I was wondering if I can replace the blades from another same-size fan? I know you can take the blades off and put them back on but i was wondering if they are interchangeable.

Well what card? I had an old 5450 which you could do that to as it was a single fan on a ancient motor mount.
Most new fans cant be replaced without replacing the whole cooler, as it will offset the fan balance and cause noise and possible damage.

In that case you probably can, Powercolor dosent make the most quality products, but they do allow you to replace things like fans, as they fail.

So I can buy another fan, take the blades off that one and put them on the old fan, as long as they are both ball bearings?
