A month and a half wait for a $4 part is kind of frustrating. I couldn't find a similar part stateside. Maybe it is time to buy a new video card.
If you are seriously contemplating getting a new card then maybe take another look at the Gelid cooler option. May I ask what is the make and model version of your card? This would help to figure out if the Gelid will work for you.

Thanks for the offer, Fire$torm, but I decided against an aftermarket cooler. Thinking about getting a new card (if i see a good deal) and when the replacement fan gets here fix the 6850 and sell that one off.
