I broke a fan blade on my MSI GeForce GTX 650. I looked for a replacement but I couldn't find the same one. I read that I might not need a fan and just the heat sink is enough, I don't run it too hard. Do I need a new fan and how do I find one that fits? My old fan was 90mm in diameter and it snapped over the edges of the heat sink which is 92 x 107 mm.
GPU fan broke. Do I even need one?

I might be possible to buy a replacement 90mm fan if the clips can be removed from the old one. If not you can try looking on ebay or some such site for an identical card that is broken and buy it for cheap just for the heatsink/fan.
