So one time at EVGA BAND CAMP lol... I broke the fins off the rear fan on my EVGA 780ti CLASSIFIED dual ACX GPU. Sitting in my chair, quite disturbed at this fact i had an idea to use an old 45 mm fan, no name brand and this was the result

    Nice job using what you had to get it running
     
    Did it involve any modding of the fan - what steps did it take to attach

    I will post more in depth fix build soon but basically, I used a kitchen knife to shave a few mm off the bottom of the old fan, to have it fit without grinding and making a hell of a lot of noise. And also swapped the internal graphite ring well i think its graphite' from the EVGA FAN the magnet done the rest.
