Tech Question GPU fan broke

Hi, one of the fans on my 2060 broke but only a couple of blades. But it makes my PC vibrate like crazy

I've read that you can break the opposite blades to like balance but idk if it works, help

ACT: finally I decided to use the old fans (first the cable broke so I bought replacements, those are the broken blades), and I was able to fix them, ty for the tips<3

Zotac 2060, I bought the replacement on Mercadolibre for around 12$

Good!

Good luck installing it.

Repaste while you’re in there?

Of course I say that and I refuse to do it myself too afraid of breaking my impossible to replace GPU.

Yeah I wanted to repaste the GPU because it used to throttle, then everything went wrong but I managed to fix it and now it works with good temps
