Hi guys.

It's been a while since i posted here 😀

Anw today my GTX 560 Ti DS SC fan broke, both of them actually. I thought i could buy new fans but i saw that the screwmounts were broke too . Hell of an accident yeah. So i have access to old dead cards like 460 470 480 550ti. But im not sure if its good to change that as long as the cards are msi hawks. Should i try that . Or just buy a new aftermarket cooler.

And dont suggest about a new gpu as next year im planning to get a 780 ti or SLI them. Till then dont want to spend much on 560 Ti .Although i am more than satisfied with its performance.

Thank you all :)

I would say that dont go about installing new fans or making hardware repairs yourself. Take it to a certified expert like the nvidia support centers. Its best not to get your hands dirty. Here take this http://www.nvidia.com/page/contact_information.html call them up and let them know of the situation and if your warranty is still valid then you may even get a replacemnet if not then they will obviously assist you.

The problem is that i bought the card when i was in USA. Now im back to Albania and it's been 2 years. Dont think that the card is under warranty anymore. I don't have any problem installing new fans or aftermarket cooler. It comes handy. Just need an opinion as if if i buy an aftermarket cooler i will order it from Ebay. But was surfing around and didnt find any data about gtx 560 ti cooler. I mean couldnt find any data that said gtx 4xx cooler can fit the 560ti one.

Anw thank you for your time
 
I called and they asked me to ship it to them . But the shipping cost is about 40$ + the cost of the repair (They need to check it and tell me how much i need to pay) it goes a little bit too much . So i truly need a GPU compatible with 560 Ti Ds Sc to replace it. Or should i get a liquid cooler ?
