Long story, bear with with me. so I was mining dogecoin, I heard what I thought was my GPU fans ramping up. I paid no attention to it until I heard a bang, and then a rumble. I shut down my PC and opened the side panel. A fan blade has come off of my sapphire 7950 dual-x. My theory is that the fan began to wobble as the RPM went up and a fan blade hit the heatsink. My evidence is the scratches on the bottom of the broken fan blade.
So Toms Hardware, what do I do? I have these choices.
1: buy a replacement 85mm fan.
2: buy a replacement heatsink 3: RMA with sapphire
4: Ask sapphire to mail me a new fan
5: Superglue and sticky tape
EDIT: What are your guys thoughts on Sapphire customer support? How was your previous experience?
Thanks in advance!
