Hey, I accidentally broke my CPU cooler, a NF-p14 that is in the middle of the Noctua Nh-d14, I was taking off some dust with the cooler on, and the fan hit the GPU and one of it helix broke.. IS there any way I can fix it with Glue or Silicon? Anything that keeps it balanced without shaking or vibrating?

IF not I am going to buy a new one, some people told me to use hot glue, I tried but it got loose and fell again...

Any advices or techniques?

Thanks!

Simply put you will never be able to get it to balance correctly. Save yourself the headache and purchase a new one. Make sure you have the Tim also and that way you will get a good seal for the best cooling it can give you. :thumbsup:

If you just bought it you might see if they will replace it under warranty. I don't know if they will cover it for the reason you stated though.
