Cool Changing the fan on my video card

I want to know if it's possible to take off the stock fan on my video card and replace it with another cooling fan?
My graphics card is an ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro that is a 256mb card. I want to take it off and replace it with a model Zalman VF900-Cu VGA cooler. There is a cheaper Zalman VF700-Cu VGA Cooler.
Would it be possible to do? The other option would be to put up with the noise the fan has been making, over a year now, and buy a fan cooler that snaps on over the present card. That's just an idea the last option. I don't even know if that would work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, attilathehun1

Personally I would go for the VF900-Cu VGA cooler myself.
But I don't know if it will fit your ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro.
Here are my results with the VF900-Cu Here

The only thing you can do is look for picture of an ATI FireGL X2 AGP Pro without the heatsink and see if the holes line up
