New Chipset Fans on OEM A8N-SLI

I went to a local computer store selling OEM boxed A8N-SLI. It had the
new northbridge chipset fan (turned 45 degrees from the original)
already on it. How long before Asus retail boxed A8N series boards get
the updated fan?

I like that answer. Talinhg the piss 100% whist retaining an illusion of
100% sincerity. God knows I wish I could do that.

You can call Asus rma number, and they will ship you one of the new fans,
free. I got mine within 4 days; not installed yet because one must remove
motherboard to replace it.
