RE: Broke my CPU fan :(
Just to fix ideas, to cool a CPU you need a fan, and a heatsink. You don't _have_ to replace both if only the fan is broken, although on most stock heatsinks both parts are bound together, AFAIK.
The main characteristic of a fan is the diameter (80, 90 or 120mm), and possibly its noise level if you do care (the larger, the quieter).
If you want/have to replace both, then as said previously you should look for a model compatible with your CPU socket.
