The problem is finding a part that will replace the existing fan, they tend to be individually designed for the card, rather than generic, like case or cpu fans.
As a stop gap you could try something to lubricate the existing fan. The trouble with doing this, is that any liquid lubricant will be a dust magnet. So the quantity used would need to be really small - literally one drop of a really light oil like sewing machine oil, or spray some WD40 into a saucer or something & use a drop of that picked up in the eye of a needle. Unless you can get hold of a dry lubricant - e.g. graphite or teflon powder - difficult to apply though, very messy. (powdered pencil 'lead' would do it, if finely powdered enough)
Having said that, you were saying the system may not have a warranty - but the individual parts should have - may be worth a word with the shop???
