Noisy gpu fan

I am wondering if anyone has any advice on fixing a noisy gpu fan. This is the link to my card.

I have already taken the fans off the cooler and looked all around for someway for them to come apart at all, and i don't see anything. It seems the fan is just lose, it vibrates if anything bumps the desk or the case. Any ideas? I heard sewing machine oil is good to use, but i don't know where in the fan i should be trying to put it.

if the fans r loose just oil won't do

What should i do?

try to move the fans with your finger . if it's just moving inside-outside then just put some oil or wd40
if it's moving left-right then ask for rma or repair (if it's still on warranty)
if it's not on warranty then look for a new part or go for an aftermarket cooler

what kind of oil?

 

[Ru5ty_t00l]

I would use wd-40 for the shaft
just a little bit is enough

how do i open the fan?

is it still on warranty??

 

[bluethunder]

yes, but id much rather do a home repair, then sit 14 days without a gpu and have msi send me a regular hawk version

I don't have this gpu so i can't really know how to open it.
in your first post u said : "I have already taken the fans off the cooler" .
