I have the same card and the fan did no tail but is catching on the heatsink causing noise.
I have unplugged the fan and I get temps of 60c max when watching HD films and playing basic games.
I would have a look at your temps, as if like me you are using for HTPC system and have good airflow it may not be needed.
Sure a number of the main GPU fan maker support this card try the Zalman range they always seem the best.

He's playing a FPS for about 5 mins then the system crashes due to overheating of the GFX card.
I have put my trusty old x1950xt in his machine and all woks fine.
I have contacted powercolor about the issue to see what warranty is on the failed card.
