I have a question, my nvidia Ti4600 fan Failed, can you get replacements? I took all the brakets and everything off and installed a stick-on HSF, it seems to be withstanding the task, but i am kinda scared that the tape will fail and my video card will burn up.

I've seen that happen on cooler running cards than yours! Doesn't your card have holes for mounting a pegged on cooler?

Yes you can get a good ThermalTake GPU fan for about $25 USD. Here in Australia they run for about $50 so with the exchange rate..... You might also want to pick up a tube of Arctic Silver3 or even CoolerMaster thermal compound to make sure things stay nice and cool.

If its not broke dont fix it.
