Geforce 4 heatsink, how hard is it to get off?

[Baronz]

My fan is just kind of hanging there...somewhat spinning, so i might pick up a crystal orb or the thermaltake cooler. Is it glued on there? or is it just the pins? HOpefully it wouldn't be too hard to get off.

Also i could use some suggestions on options of geforce 4 coolers. TIA.

Well if the fan is still functional you could take the cheap
most effective route and put some ASIII on it and then
reattach the fan. If that is not an option most GF4 coolers
I have seen are attached w/ pushpins so I would just replace
it with the Thermaltake GF4 cooler as it would fit perfectly,
the crystal orb would not line up to the holes so you would have
to glue it on.

The fan itself is loose within the heatsink...I have no clue how it's attached or if I'd be able to reattach it if it's loose. Is it integrated in their real good or is there some sort of snap?
