I was cleaning my PC today and noticed that my CPU fan is tilted because its rubber mounts have failed. I'm not sure when this happened, but it's stuck between some motherboard components, making me hesitant to touch it. Does anyone have any advice on how to handle this situation?

Could you share a photo? I'm having a hard time visualizing what you mean by 'rubber fan mounts' on a CPU cooler. I've seen them for case fans, but I think this is a different setup.
You might want to compare the cost of just replacing the clips with getting a whole new air cooler. Sometimes, the price of individual parts doesn't add up logically.
I found some replacement clips on Amazon for around $8. I hope they fit! Good luck with the repair.
