Is it possible to get hold of replacement fans?

One of mine is playing up and needs replacing, was going to contact MSI to see if they can supply me with replacement fans.

Anyone tried or had success with this?
 
can't say I've ever tried it. when ever I've had a failing fan or old card that's running hot i usually rip the shroud off and strap a couple good 120mm fans to the heatsink instead.
 
I've seen some fans on the bay so might give that a try or just put some fans on the heatsink.

The fans are made by Power Logic model PLD10015B12H
 
The other option of course is to swap the whole cooler for an after market model, they're available for most cards although they are usually designed to be fixed fan speed but quieter.
 
What is your old fan doing? It might just need a little grease if it is clicking or become noisy. Did that with my old 5850 when it started to sound a little tired.
 
One fan is broken, oil/grease won't fix it.

It's not worth spending money on an after market cooler.
