One of graphic card fan is making rough noise

Hello,

For the past days I have heard a rough sound from my hardware, but I have not checked it out until now. I first tought it was dust but then I found out one of the fan from geforce gtx 970 is not running smoothly with my finger. I have layed it down on the floor, started it and it runned smoothly just like the rest of the two. Then I put it like it has always been with fans pointing down the floor and it started with rough sound again. I have noticed that fan is a little loosen up. I checked speed fan app and it said temperature 2 is 127 C so I guess it was that fan thats making rough noise others were around 30 C. It sounds like a broken wheel thats gonna fell off. Is there something I could do myself to fix this. Thank you advance for your answers.
 
sounds like that fan's bearing has failed.
how many fans are on the graphics card, 1 or 3?
include a picture in your next post.
either that particular fan can be swapped, or the entire fan assembly part of the card should be able to be swapped.
