My chipset fan(by the vid card area) is dying and at times it won't spin. Does any know of a good replacement heatsink/fan for it that won't get in the way of the vid card? thanks...

my K8N Neo 2 Platinum had the same problem.
Cheapie fan with the expensive looking label no longer spun freely.

I removed the fan, lifted the paper cover on the back side, applied a little lithium grease, and reassembled.

Been working great for a few months now
