I want to "repair" my fan by lubricating the bearing with some oil,

The problem is, I don't know how to take apart (or drill) the GPU fan in order to access the bearing so that I can lubricate it. Any suggestions?

The GPU fan looks like this. As you can see by the pictures, there are no visible screws that can be used to take apart the casing.

Its quite unlikley that cleaning and oiling the bearing would have any lasting success and would likley just make it worse. Ive done this before with initial success that quickly went back to a poorly running fan.

Its a way better option to simply remove the fan unit, find the part number and shell out 14 bucks on amazon for a new one. I dont know what the heck that is but the fan unit should unscrew from that housing (once you disassemble the housing) and can be replaced in its entirety.
