Inno3D Nvidia GTX 570 fan noise.

[Firecow]

Hey.
My GPU's fan is starting to blow my ears out.

I've already cleaned it, didn't help.
I didn't lubricate it in any way.

Can it be lubricated, somehow?
Is it possible to buy a new (better) fan? (I searched, but not with success)
Or is water cooling the way to go?

Yours Firecow

It's an older card, so after years of work it should make some noise, unless you treated it like a baby and took care of it all the time, lol. Lubricating won't help I'm pretty sure. But changing out fans should fix the problem. If you plan to water-cool the card, might as well get a new GPU for that price. Seems like you need an upgrade anyway.
