hey, my radeon 9800 broke like 5-6 months ago, at first it was just shuttin down at random times i think because of it, then when i tried turning it on nothing happened (it lit up, but nothing on screen) so i took the graphics card out and it worked again...when I opened the comp up the fan on the graphics card was broken off, i have pics, im wondering if its really broke or if i can fix it somehow...thanks ..

I'd say get a 3rd party cooler from someone like Vantec, Zalman or Arctic Cooling. They're easy to fit, can be relatively cheap and provide better cooling than stock.
 
okay thanks do you have a reccomendation? and could i just use like a home fan for right now and it'll work until it overheats or somethin? im lookin cheap also llol thanks for reply :cool:
 
Jezz thanks for quick replys, i really appreciate it, i think im gonna order the one your usin, thanks again.
 
No problem, personally I'd go with Arctic Cooling if possible, they're the best, I just couldnt get one of their coolers for my card as they don't make one (it's the cards fault, not AC's fault :P)
