I bought this card at launch in September and had this issue from day one. At first I fixed it (sort of) by making a custom fan profile, which eliminated the issue occurring after/during gaming. However, it still happens randomly when I boot my computer (and only on boot). Sometimes when the PC loads into Windows, one fan will spin at 100% and the other won't spin at all. It's quite annoying as the only fix is to open the case and nudge the non-moving fan to make it move.
This thread describes the issue very well:

I've read on various forums that the only fix is an RMA, but I really don't want to be without the card, so instead I was thinking of installing new fans/a different cooler.
It's just that I have no experience doing that on GPUs, and don't even know what I'm supposed to look for on my local retailer's website.
Any pointers on a replacement cooler for this MSI 970 G4 Gaming?
