[Build Help] Reusing VGA cooler from dead card

After upgrading to a Visiontek R9 290 with a reference cooler I've been looking for ways to get it running a little cooler and quieter. New aftermarket VGA coolers seem to be too expensive to be worth adding at the 290's price point, and I have not had much luck finding them used on ebay or hardwareswap. But with the crimson drivers frying cards, I had another idea and wanted to ask about whether or not it was feasible - could I remove a better cooler from a dead card and put it on my 290? If so, would it need to be another 290, or could it be any 200 or 300 series card?
