Hello, recently I upgraded to a 1080 ti and wanted to use my 780 classy ive been using for years in a different pc build, however once I took it out I noticed one of the fans was protruding the shroud and not spinning. When I tried to push it back to hopefully reseat it, it just sprang right back to hanging out of the socket. I was hoping someone knew of how to take apart the shroud to hopefully replace the fan itself since I cant find the whole unit on ebay currently. however the 4th screw to completely take the shroud off of the heatsink is being one of the decorative metal plates that says classified as far as I can tell.. Anyone have any ideas or possibly resolutions on where I could get a replacement acx cooler?
 
Thanks

    If you can find a cooler on eBay, you can easily pull the fan or change the entire shroud.

    yeah no luck there, the 780 classified's shrouds are much bigger than the 780 standards as far as I can tell and I have yet to find one on ebay, and im sure when I do it will be half the cost of a used working 780.
