How the heck did you managed to pop off 2 fan blades?! Never heard of that...
You could try the ebay, some people are selling the original heatsinks after they switched to water-blocks...

Its easy, the fan is not protected and it has a huge heat sink. Yeah I don't mind paying for it, I'll contact them directly

I used my soldering gun to melt the blades back on, these cards are a BEAST coming from 2 7970's its not a over whelming change, I can beat most of my 7970 CF score with this card. So yeah I ordered a second one! :cool:
When a fan's blade is damaged, you better change the whole fan... it may get out of balance and not sure that soldering it back on will help that issue...

I can't just slap a fan on the card so I either fix it or buy a new factory fan from Asus(the card has two different fans). I don't have a lot of time at home and if I'm not home when UPS or FEDEX come they will not leave the package as peoples mail turns up missing. I melted the plastic, I didn't add any thing to it so there balance is fine. Not sure why you posted except to up your post count, or.................
I have posted in this thread because I am seriously curious how you managed to damage the fan… - that was my primary reason…
The secondary one was to share with you my opinion about damaged/repaired fans…
Nah, I was just increasing my post count! 😄

Cool! :cool: I haven't got to the 780Ti cards yet...
This is with my 2 Titans:
BTW, the SLI bridges comes with the motherboards at Asus...
And no, you don't have to have a dedicated TestBench to do benchmarking, but I like to have them... 🙂
